COLLECTED BY CAPTAIN TOYNBEE. 185 



This species is nearly allied to S. incequalis, from the Pacific. The forms of the two 

 posterior cephalotlioracic segments are different, and the caudal lamellae are rather longer 

 than twice their breadth. 



Length ^oth of an inch; length of the finger tooo'j "f the 2nd segment -2Wo"> of t-lie 

 claw -aOTo'^ of the caudal setse -jtoo", of the caudal lamellae -jf^o" ; breadth of the caudal 

 lamellse awo"- The setae of the appendage to the base of the abdomen were imperfect. 



One of the specimens had a number of eggs attached to it. 

 Collected November 24, 1857. S. lat. 0° ,30'; W. long. 0° 30'. 

 Pl. XXIX. fig. 18, X 15 ; fig. 19. antenna of second pair, x 30. 



Sapphimna parva, n. s. Feniince conspicilla contigua, prominentia. Digitus antenna- 

 rum posticarum articulo secundo brevior, articulis valde inaequis, unguiculo dimidii 

 digiti longitudine. Abdomen segmentis primo et secundo angustis truncatis, tertio 

 et quarto latioribus lunatis, postico rotundato. Lamellae caudales ovatae, ad apicem 

 rotundatae, apice interno denticulate, setis duabus terminalibus, duabus lateralibus, 

 omnibus brevibus (lamella fere quadruplo brevioribus) . 

 This species is nearly allied to S. detonsa, a Pacific form. It differs, however, in having 

 longer setae to the caudal lamellae ; and the general outline is a little different. The length 

 of the second segment of the antennae is toou"» that of the finger being -a ooo"> ^^^ of the 

 claw awo"- The breadth of the caudal lamellse is -g-o^oo" > their length is ^^o"j ^^d that 

 of longest seta is -^om'- The total length is about -j^s-th of an inch. 

 Collected April 9, 1858, in S. lat. 0° 30', W. long. 0° 30'. 

 Pl. XXIX. fig. 20, X 30; fig. 21. antenna of second pair, x 60. 



Sapphirina, n. s. ? 



The collection contains also a specimen closely resembling S. indigotica. The finger is 

 however as long as the second joint, the claw is not half as long as the finger, and the 

 caudal setae are barely half as long as the lamellse. It must therefore, I think, be con - 

 sidered a new species ; but having only one specimen, I do not like to describe it. 

 Collected in S. lat. 0° 40', W. long. 0° 20'. 



Sapphikika opvIentalis, Dana. 



I name this species with some hesitation, as it was originally collected by Dana in the 

 Sooloo Sea, south-west of the Island of Panay. It appears, however, to agree exactly 

 with a specimen collected by Captain Toynbee on the 5th Oct., N. lat. 12°, W. long. 20° 50'. 



Sapphirina Danai, Lbk. 



Collected in S. lat. 0° 40', W. long. 0° 20'. 



B. Conspicilla non conjtmcta. 

 Sapphirina ovatolanceolata, D. 



Collected in S. lat. O' 30°, W. long. 0° 30'. 



Sapphirina Gemma, D. 



Collected, June 18, in S. lat. 0° 40', W. long. 0° 20'.
