N. sarsi. There seems, therefore, to be no valid character separating the two forms, 

 and I have here regarded them as one species with a wide circumpolar Antarctic and 

 sub-Antarctic distribution. 



As to the genus Notasellus, Hodgson has abeady remarked that it is extremely 

 near to Janira. Vanhoffen, however, points out that it differs from all the other 

 genera of the Janirini except Antias in the form of the eyes, which are borne on lateral 

 processes of the head instead of being situated on the dorsal surface of the head. For 

 this reason he would retain the genus as distinct from Janira, and for the present I 

 would follow that conclusion. Hansen is "of opinion that several supposedly distinct 

 genera allied to Janira should be suppressed as synonymous, but pending a complete 

 revision of the genus and its allies it is more convenient to retain Notasellus, particularly 

 as there is a species lolella [lanthopsis) sarsi which in Hansen's view should be called 

 Janira sarsi, and confusion could only result if Notasellus sarsi were referred to the 

 same genus. 



Genus ECTIAS, Richardson.

JB. turqueti, Richardson, 1906 (2), p. 14, pi. I, fig. 5, text-figs. 14-19; Richardson, 1913, 

 p. 18.

Group MUNNINI. 



Genus GOULMANNIA, Hodgson. 



8. Coulmannia frigida, Hodgson. 



G.frigida, Hodgson, 1910, p. 54; Vanhofien, 1914, p. 580, text-fig. 111. 



Occurrence. — Station 356, off Granite Harbour, entrance to McMurdo Sound, 

 50 fathoms, bottom fauna, two specimens. 



Genus MUNNA, Boeck. 



9. Munna maculata, Beddard (?). PI. I, figs. 11-14. 



Munna maculata, Beddard, 1886 (1), p. 98 ; Beddard, 1886 (2), p. 25, pi. XI, fig. 14 ; Van- 

 hoffen, 1914, p. 563, text-figs. 92«, 926. 



Occurrence. — King Edward Cove and Cumberland Bay, S. Georgia, December, 1913, 

 collected by P. Stammwitz, three males and six females, 3 mm. 



Remarks. — I am doubtful of the identity of these small Munnids. They have 

 not the prominent pigment-spots as figured by Beddard from which the species 

 derives its name, but they have a distribution of subdued pigment-spots more or 

 less as figured by Vanhoffen. They w^ere captured with Haliacris antarctica, Pfeft'er, 

 and at first I thought they represented immature specimens of the latter, but closer
