: BRACHYURA. 
1. EURYPODIUS LATREILLIT, Edw. 
This species was taken abundantly in the dredge at the Tysson Islands, in Falkland 
Sound. 
2. EURYPODIUS AvDOUINII, Edw. and Luc. 
Dredged at Port Otway, Cape Tres Montes. | 
3. EURYPODIUS SEPTENTRIONALIS, Dana. 
This species is common in the Strait of Magellan from the eastern entrance as far as 
Sandy Point. I feel somewhat doubtful whether it is distinct from Æ. Audowinü, as. 
some of the points of distinction pointed out by Dana, e. g. the length of the hairs on the 
legs, are not to be depended on. 
4. EURYPODIUS BREVIPES, Dana. 
This species, which, I think, is a good one, although the length of the joints of the limbs 
is certainly not a thoroughly reliable distinction, being subject to a very considerable 
amount of variation in different individuals, was dredged in Possession Bay. 
5. EPIALTUS DENTATUS, Edw. 
This crab has a wide range on the coast of Chili. I obtained specimens at Ancud 
(Chiloe), Lota (Bay of Arauco), and Coquimbo. It is of a dull greenish colour when 
alive, and is very sluggish in its movements. It appears to be an inhabitant of shallow 
water, as I invariably found it under stones in the rock-pools at about half-tide. ` 
6. CANCER EDWARDSII, Edw. 
This crab, which closely resembles our British species in general appearance, is common 
at Ancud (Chiloe), where it is largely eaten by the inhabitants. 
7. XANTHO PLANUS, Edw. x 
- Common at Chiloe, and attains a considerable size. 
8. XANTHO GAUDICHAUDII, Edw. 
I met with numerous examples of this pretty species at Ancud (Chiloe), in pools in 
the rocks at low tide. 
9. PrLUMNOIDES PERLATUS, Edw. and Luc. 
This species is also common at Chiloe. 
10. ERIPHIA GONAGRA, Fabr. 
This crab is abundant at Rio de Janeiro on rocks in shallow water. |
