, R. DOUGLAS LAURIE—BRACHYURA. 423 
B. Tella Tella Kebira. From sand. The fauna includes the common 
shore hermit-crabs, which live above high-tide level, and the 
yellow land-crab, so abundant on the sand cays at Khor Dongonab 
and elsewhere, wherever there is sand for its burrows. 
X. Agig. Lat. 18° 13' N. From among coral in 44 fathoms of water. 
Agig is close to the southern frontier of the Sudan. 
The distribution of the species in the present collection among the above 
Stations is set out in Table III. (pp. 420-421). 
As regards literature, I have referred in every case to some good descrip- 
tion—in Alcock’s ‘ Materials, whenever possible. I have included in the 
synonymies all references to Nobili, 1906, and Klunzinger, 1906, the two most 
recent accounts of Red Sea Brachyura. Most references of earlier date will 
be found in the works just named, but I have added a few others. The 
more recent literature on Indo-Pacific Brachyura has been referred to as 
has appeared desirable. Useful lists of general carcinological literature are 
given in Alcock, 1901, Klunzinger, 1906, and Ihle, 1913. Important discussions 
on nomenclature will be found in Rathbun, 1897, and in Stebbing’s ‘ South 
African Crustacea,’ in which latter also are notes on classification and very 
useful synonymies. Borradaile 1902 (1) contains suggestive remarks on 
varieties.
