are rather ag with a basal comb and a row of fine cilia (Fig. 14). 
There is an accessory oti: composed o or 8 teeth on the

the next one, and clothed with cilia. 
The animal is of a deep reddish-brown along the back, shading

This Dapnia is evidently closely allied to Dapnia atkinsoni, 
Baird, but, so far as the spec cimens which I have examined go, 
it is suffic iently distinct. In view of the great local and seasonal 
variability of the Daphnias, the ankiig of new species has become 
rather speculative proceeding and it is unfortunate that in this 
case I have not had the male and ephippial female for compari- 
son; but, on the evidence available, I think I have no course 
open to me but to describe the species as new.
