840 Transactions.—Zvology, 
in rock pools, N. angustata and N. microlepidota ina net. Not a single fish 
was caught with a hook. Most of the fish at the Auckland Islands are 
attacked by parasites in a most remarkable way; in some cases the whole 
of the lateral muscles being full of a round worm about an inch in length, 
So bad are they that nothing but sheer necessity would induce any one to 
eat fish at these islands, 
CRUSTACEA, 
Prionorhynchus edwardsii, Jacq. and Lucas. 
Six specimens from the Auckland Islands, all mele. 
Nectocarcinus antarcticus, Jacq. and Lucas. 
Six specimens from the Auckland Islands, of which five were obtained 
from the stomach of a large specimen of Notothenia microlepidota. 
Halicarcinus planatus, Fabr. 
À great many specimens from both the Auckland and Campbell Islands. 
Munidia subrugosa, List. 
Three specimens from the Auckland Islands; two adult and one young. 
The young specimen is quite as small or smaller than Grimothea greyaria, 
so abundant round the South Island in March, and yet it does not show 
the slightest approach to the foliaceous maxillipeds of Grimothea. The 
habits of the two species are also quite different. Grimothea is pelagic and 
floats on the surface of the sea, while Munidia lives at the bottom. Mr 
Jennings caught these specimens in a baited net. 
Squilla levis, sp. nov. 
Rostral-plate semi-lanceolate, acute ; carapace smooth, without crests, 
slightly expanded and rounded behind; inner antenne reaching nearly as 
far as the outer, second joint extending as far as the eye, third joint as 
long as the second. Prehensile finger with 12 teeth (exclusive of the 
extremity) ; penultimate finely toothed internally and with three spines at 
the base; externally quite smooth ; abdomen smooth, without longitudinal 
ridges, scarcely broader than the carapace, without lateral spines except on 
the penultimate segment; last segment with about 10 spines alternately 
large and small, while on each side of the central line there are six very 
small spines ; internal lateral caudal plates oval, not passing the marginal 
spine of the basal joint. Length, 13 inch 
A single specimen taken from the onik of a specimen of Notothenia 
microlepidota, caught at the Auckland Islands. 
- Cirolana rossii, List. 
Many specimens from the Auckland Islands. 
Spharoma gigas, Leach.
