and usually in comparatively shallow wateror on the shore ; it 

 appeared to be one of tlie more common of the Franz- Josef Land 

 Amphipoda. The following are some of the localities where it 

 was obtained : — West Bay, Cape Flora, in 2 to 3 fathoms, on 

 the 22nd and 25th August, and off Flagstaff Point, Elmwood, 

 on the 19th September, 1896. Fifty yards off "West Point, Cape 

 Flora, in 2 to 3 fathoms, on July 7th ; and on sand near East 

 Grlacier, Cape Flora, on August 1st, 1897. A few days after- 

 wards, viz. on the 7th of August, the same species was taken on 

 the shore at Cape Mary Harmsworth. Prof. Gr. 0. Sars (loc. cif.} 

 also records the species from Franz-Josef Land.

This species was also represented by numerous specimens in 

 the Bruce collection ; it was taken at the surface of the water 

 and at various depths down to 26 fathoms. In 1896 it was 

 obtained at West Bay, Cape Flora, in 2 to 3 fathoms water, on 

 the 22nd of August, and at about a mile off Flora Cottage in 15 

 fathoms on the 10th September. Onesimus Edioardsii was taken 

 on several occasions during 1897 ; the first record of it for that 

 year is on January 11th, when specimens were collected about 

 two-thirds of a mile south-west of Elmwood, others were after- 

 wards collected near the same locality during April, May, and 

 June. The species also occurred in other places, but they 

 were all in the neighbourhood of Cape Flora, near the western 

 extremity of Northbrook Island. This is also one of the species 

 recorded by Prof. Sars from Franz-Josef Land.

 were observed in the Bruce collection ; they occurred in a gather-
