occurs also very abundantly ID the district, likewise 
puts on an excessively tumid form, differing almost as mue 
from the typical form as ide the variety of C. candida just 
described (see Pl. VII. figs. 8, 9). 
Hab. We have found the tumid variety of C. candida 
abundantly i in the dykes in the ME of Whittlesea, 
also in the rivers Nene, Cam, and Scheldt, in Barton Broad, 
and in the Warn burn, Neduba. "The normal form 
occurs also constantly throughout Norfolk and Suffolk, and, 
so far as we know, throughout the kingdom. Candona com- 
pressa we found in all our East-Anglian gatherings, except 
those from Hickling Broad and the rivers Bure an &, 
The two forms of C. candida run into each other so much 
that it is sometimes difficult to say whether an example should 
be referred to the species or its variety. The rosulate disposi- 
tion of the lucid spots, however, and the peculiar reticulation 
of the posterior portion of the "shell (figured in the * Mono- 
graph of Recent British Ostracoda’), are pari eye only 
in the tumid varie We are not aware that this form ever 
occurs in localities entirely uninfluenced by the emis

Carapace of the female, as seen from the side, subreniform ; 
greatest height near a middle, and equal to half the length; 
extremities rounded : superior margin boldly arched, inferior 
rather deeply Saa, in the middle. Seen from above, 
ovate, width somewhat less than the height, greatest in the 
middle; pointed in front, sharply rounded behind. Shell of 
the male, as seen from the side, more deeply sinuated be- 
low; the dorsal margin obscurely sinuated in front of the 
middle, and more arched than in the female: seen from 
above, much more compressed: shell thin and fragile, 
colourless, showing the limbs of the a distinctly 
through it. Length of the female 4. inc
