of which I have had an opportunity of consulting. My 
specimens agree very closely with his description, and indeed 
the specific diagnosis I had drawn up contains almost. precisely 
the same points as those mentioned in his. Mr. Annandale had 
only one specimen from Nelson for examination, from the 
examination of the series at my disposal I had noted that the 
minute blunted caleareous spines on the peduncle vary con- 
siderably, in some specimens being distinct only towards the 
base, but in others equally well marked towards the distal end. 
Mr. Annandale says that the species closely resembles 
S. kampeni Annandale, which oceurs off the east coast of 
Sumatra at Singapore and in the Gulf of Siam.
