ftiid having a similar jiair, Ijiit imicli larger ones, on the first

 Boiivier, is closely allied, hut stouter; lateral processes closer 

 together, and the neck is shorter. 

 Several specimens, winter-quarters. 



Phoxichilidium australe. 



The presence of a small process or spur on either side of 

 the proboscis serves to distinguish this species. 

 A tew specimens from winter-quarters. 



Pallenopsis jnlosa. 

 Phoxichilidium pilosum, Iloek, 'Challenger' Report. 



This species, first described by Dr. Hoek, has since been 

 found at various points in the antarctic regions by most of 

 the recent expeditions. 



Winter-quarters, 20. iii. 02. 



Pallenopsis vanhoffeni. 



This species is conspicuously setose, but readily distin- 

 guishable from the foregoing by the coarseness of the setre. 

 The cephalic segment is longer than the two following. The 

 abdomen is shorter than the first segment and clavate, with a 

 group of long seta?. 



Three specimens, winter-quarters, 7. ii. 03 and 3. iv. 02. 



Pallenopsis gaussiana. 



This may fairly be called a conspicuously setose species, 

 and the distinctive feature is the presence of a spine near the 

 antero-lateral margin of the ccphalon. Spines also occur on 

 the lateral processes. The abdomen is longer than the first 

 segment. The legs are clothed with long coarse sette, but 

 these vary greatlv in length.
