the propodos. ‘Third, fourth, and fifth pereiopoda similar in form, in- 
creasing somewhat in size posteriorly, basa much expanded. Lower por- 
tions of the sides of the second and third segments of pleon supplied with 
numerous sete. Pleopoda short, all reaching to about the same point. 
Fourth pair with peduncle stout, produced into a sharp point between the 
rami, upper margin with strong sete, rami equal, with strong sete on upper 
margins and at the extremities, fifth pair similar but with rami unequal, 
pedunele of sixth pair stout, outer ramus nearly as long as peduncle, with 
thick tuft of sete about as long as the ramus at the end; inner ramus rudi- 
mentary with one or two small sete, telson narrowing greatly towards the 
end, posterior margin sinuous, convex in centre, concave on each side, on 
the upper part of the telson towards the end is a rather long seta on each 
side, and between this and the postero-lateral angle are two sharp teeth 
pointing upwards. Colour greyish. 
Length 1 inch. 
Hab. Lyttelton Harbour. 
This species appears to differ from other species of the same genus in 
the presence of a secondary appendage to the upper antenna, and in having 
the first gnathopoda simple, not subchelate ; the plumose character of the 
. gnathopoda is however, I think, sufficient evidence of its near relationship. 
I take pleasure in naming this species after Dr. R. von Lendenfeld, by 
means of whose scraper I obtained several specimens off one of the buoys 
in Lyttelton Harbour.

Panoplan translucens, sp. nov. Pl. xxi., fig. 8, a to c. 
Closely related to Panoplea debilis, but larger and lighter in colour and 
differing in the following points. None of the segments produced poste- 
riorly into spines. The two pairs of gnathopoda similar in shape and equal 
in size, much stouter than in P. debilis, basos with longish sete on both 
sides, carpus nearly as long as propodos, propodos rectangular, slightly 
more than twice as long as broad, palm oblique extending about one-third 
along the inferior margin of the propodos, one stout seta on each side of the 
point where the dactylos impinges, numerous tufts of stout short sete 
along inferior margin of propodos. Three last pairs of pleopoda very 
slender, fourth pair with peduncle considerably longer than the rami, con- 
cave above, upper margins with short stout sete, outer ramus longer than 
the inner, both with sete on the upper margin and at the end; fifth pair 
similar, but with outer ramus shorter than peduncle, and the inner one 
longer than the peduncle ; sixth with peduncle stout, naked, rami equal, 
longer than peduncle, broad when seen from above, both margins with
