Description of Two New Pliyllopoda from 

 North Australia. ' 



With 6 autographic Plates. 

 By Cl. O. Sårs. 



Introduction. 



In a previous paper inserted in this journal, I have 

 given descriptions and figures of 5 species of Phyllopoda 

 collected by Messrs. Whitelegge and Lea in the neighbour- 

 hood of Sydney, all of which have been identified with 

 earlier recorded forms. I now propose to describe 2 additional 

 Phyllopoda from the northern part of the continent. The 

 total number of Australian Phyllopoda, including Cyclestheria 

 Hislopi, Baird, previously described by the present author, and 

 some forms recorded by Messrs. King, Baird and Brady, 

 thus amounts to no less than 10 in all, belonging to the 

 3 leading sections of the sub-order: Anostraca, Notostraca, 

 and Conchostraca. Of the 2 species described in the 

 present paper, the one has been observed by myself in a 

 living state, whereas the other is described from well- 

 preserved alcoholic specimens. Both of these forms I 

 regard as new to science.
