tubercles^ varying (like the spines of the ventral ridge and the extremities) in their 

 development in different individuals. 



Dorsal profile sagittate and jagged ; end-view triangular. 



Cythere {CytJiereis) horrescens occurs both at Barton and Bracklesham, in the 

 Tertiary clays. According to M. Bosquet, this species and its varieties are found in 

 the " Sables moyens," the " Calcaire grossier," and the " Sables glauconiferes " of 

 France. 



I have found two specimens of this fine species in the sand dredged by Messrs. 

 MacAndrew and Barrett on the Norway Coast.

Carapace sub-oblong, tapering posteriorly ; smooth ; strongly and coarsely spined 

 on the anterior, dorsal, and posterior margins, and along the ventral ridge, which is 

 very much produced. 



Dorsal aspect sagittate, with the edges jagged ; end-vieiv triangular. 



From the Crag of Sutton, Sufi'olk, where it appears to be rare. Bosquet obtained 

 it in Belgium from the Basele Clay near Rupelraonde, and from the Nucula-bed at 

 Berg, near Klein-Spawen ; and in France from Tertiary sands near Etampes.
