3. Palaeocorystes Harveyi. 



4. Plagiolophus Vancouverensis. 



Callianassa WJuteavesii, Woodward, is described as one of 

 the " small burrowing crustaceans, found at the present day." 

 It is compared with two European species: — C. neocomiensis 

 and C. isochela both described by Dr. Woodward himself The 

 Canadian form is smaller than its European congeners. As the 

 name implies, this species is so called in honour of Mr. J. F. 

 Whiteaves, one of the members of our Club. 



Homolopsis Richardsom, Woodward, is compared by Dr. 

 Woodward with the European form H. Edwardsi, Bell, from the 

 Gault formation of Folkstone, England. 



Palaeocorystes Harveyi, Woodward, was described from two 

 specimens sent to Dr. Woodward by Mr. Whiteaves who had 

 obtained the same from Mr. Harve}' in 1892 and from Dr. C. F. 

 Newcombe. The species is named after Mr. Harvey of Comox 

 who is doing a great deal towards elucidating the Natural 

 History and geology of his district. 



Plagiolophus Vancouverensis, Woodward, is based upon four 

 specimens in the hands of Dr. Woodward ; two from Hornby 

 Island, ,one from Comox and a fourth from the Museum 

 of the Geol. Soc. of London, Eng. locality and collector not 

 being given. 



Regarding other Crustacea from the Cretaceous of Canada 

 Dr. Woodward refers to an Hoploparia or Podocrates recorded 

 from the Niobrara-Benton of Manitoba, and a long-tailed decapod 

 from the Pierre of the West. The descriptions are accompanied 

 by excellent figures of the types in question.
