paper I intend to describe and figure the several forms of 

 Cladocera, Osiracoda and Copepoda found in the collection, 

 some of which I have been enabled to identify with species 

 originally recorded by the Rev. R. L. King, whereas others appear 

 to be new to science. In the present paper, I have thought 

 it right to restrict myself to the true Phyllopoda. 



Of these, the Rev, R. L. King enumerates the following 

 species : 



1. Apus or Lepidurus sp., subsequently determined as Lejn- 

 durus viridis Baird. 



2. Limnadia stanleyana, King. 



3. Limnadia sordida, King. 



4. Lim.netis macleayana, King. 



5. Artemia proxima, King. 



In the Proc. Zool, Soc. London 1860 and 1866, Baird has 

 added 2 other Australian species, viz., Lepidurus Angasii, Baird 

 and Estlieria Birchii, Baird, the 1st of which, however, would seem 

 to be identical with that recorded by King as Lepidurus viridis. 



In Zeitschr. f. ^vissensch, Zoologie 1870, Prof. Glaus de- 

 scribes and figures the Limnadia stanleyana of King in both 

 sexes, but the specimens he examined, though sexually mature, 

 were far from having attained their full growth, and for this 

 reason the specific characters of this form still remain some- 

 what imperfect. 



In the Proc. Zool. Soc. London 1886, Brady adds the 

 following species: 



Lepidurus virididus, Tate. 



Eulimadia rivolensis, Brady. 



Estheria lutraria, Brady. 



of IST. S. Wales a brief account of the anatomy of certain Entomo- 

 straca, in Avhich also some of tlie Pliylloi^oda were treated of; but 

 the aim of this account would seem merely to have been a discri- 

 mination of the general generic characters, not the sj)ecific defini- 

 tion of the Australian forms from those earlier known.
