THE ROOTS OF LAMINARI^. g 



Genus AMYMONE, Glaus. 

 Amymone rubra, Boeck (Plate L, fig. 13). 



1872. Attiymone rubra, Boeck, Nye Sloegter eg Arter 

 af Saltvands-Gopepoder, p. 16. 

 I give here a figure drawn from one of a few specimens 

 taken at Holy Island : these are identical with the species 

 already figured and described by me in the Ray Society 

 "Monograph of British Gopepoda," under the name of 

 Amymone sphcerica, Glaus. This, however, seems to be a 

 mistaken reference. I now think that the form in question is 

 referable to A. rubra, Boeck, and not to A. sphxrica. In this 

 opinion Prof. G. O. Sars, who has kindly examined my 

 specimens, agrees. The points in which the Holy Island 

 specimens do not correspond with A. sphoerica as described by 

 Glaus are, chiefly, the shape of the hinder part of the body 

 and the size and proportions of the antennal joints. 



Genus STENHELIA, Boeck. 

 Stenlielia denticulataj I. G. Thompson. 



1893. Stenhelia denticulata, Thompson. Revised Report 



on the Gopepoda of Liverpool Bay (Trans. 



Liverpool Biological Society), p. 30. Plate 



XXX., figs. i-ii. 



The large tooth on the under side of the second joint of the 



anterior antenna is very characteristic of this species, which 



has been figured and described by Mr. I. G. Thompson. My 



specimens were taken by the dredge three miles off Whitley 



in a depth of twenty fathoms : I have no note of the number. 



I think only one or two were recognised, but it is very likely 



that others escaped notice. 



Stenlielia herdmani, A. Scott. 



Stenhelia herdmani, A. Scott. Some new and rare 



Gopepoda from Liverpool Bay (Trans. Liverpool 



Biological Society), vol. V., p. 60, Plate i, figs i-ii. 



A few specimens from washings of Laminaria roots at Holy 



Island. Mr. Scott kindly examined my mountings, and agrees 



with me in referring them to this speci es.
