 COPEPODA. 



BOECKELLA, Sp. 



Two specimens from Cooper Creek found in the tube with 

 Estheria packardi undoubtedly belong to this genus, but the 

 material is not sufficient to determine the species with cer- 

 tainty. The specimens have been already referred to in the 

 introductory remarks to this paper. 



OSTRACODA. 



In the collection are dried specimens of two species of 

 Cypris, or allied genus, from "rock hole, west of Carmeena, 

 Everard Range," collected by Capt. S. A. White, 10/8/14; 

 the one is oval in shape, about 2 mm. long, and light brown 

 in colour, the other is much smaller and greenish in colour. 

 Other specimens apparently belonging to the first species are 

 "from flat rock hole, 30 miles east of Musgrave Ranges, Capt. 

 S. A. White, 24/7/14." In both cases specimens of Lynceus 

 eremia were present in the same tube. 



CLADOCERA. 

 Daphnia, sp. 



Dried specimens of a Daphnia with carapace produced 

 into a long spine similar to that of Daphnia thomsoni, Sars, 

 were found with the Ostracods mentioned above from the 

 "rock hole, west of Carmeena, Everard Range." They are 

 about the same size at D. thomsoni, which is known to occur 

 in Australia, but in their dried and shrivelled condition a 

 definite identification is impossible.

Only seventeen species and one variety were collected, 

 and of these five are described as new. There is nothing 

 really remarkable in the specimens collected : indeed, they 

 bear a close analogy to littoral forms. A few desert species
