Antennules -with three flagella. Rostrum with six teeth above, 

 of which two or three are on the carapace and two below. First 

 feet didactyle, tolerably strong. Second feet of both sides greatly 

 lengthened and having the carpus divided into very numerous 

 jointlets. Telson with two pairs of dorsal spines. Outer uropod 

 two-jointed. The colouring is peculiarly characteristic, being 

 brilliant red, with four pale or white lines extending longitudinally 

 along the entire length of the animal. 



Aboiit the year 1889 Mr, J. Sinel procured a specimen of this 

 beautiful Mediterranean prawn in a lobster-pot at La Rocque, 

 Jersey. He wrote to ask me what it was, introducing into his 

 letter a pencil sketch. That sketch undoubtedly represented 

 Lysmata seticaudata, a most interesting addition to the fauna. 

 Unfortunately the present existence of this specimen is unknown. 

 Mr. Sinel tells me that he parted with it to some collector, but he 

 cannot recall to mind who was the recipient. Perhaps this note 

 may bring to light the possessor of this unique British specimen. 



Spirontocaris pusiola, Kroyer, I have a Jersey specimen sent to 

 me by Mr. Sinel many years ago.

I dredged the specimen described by me in 1861 in St. Catherine's 

 Bay, Jersey, among Zostera in 1859. Mr. Sinel took a second 

 example in St. Clement's Bay, Jersey, in 1890, and Mr. Frank 

 Wright captured a third near St. Peter's Port, Guernsey, in 1905.
