defined as belonging to it, and two others are named as still 

 obscure. The Appendix adds Schisturella, Norman, 1900; 

 Lysianopsis, Holmes, 1903 ; Parambasia, Walker and Scott, 1903; 

 Paracaliisoma, Chevreux, 1903; Fy a v/a, Walker, 1904; Socar- 

 nella, Walker, 1904 ; Faracyphocaris, Chevreux, 1905 ; Katius, 

 Chevreux, 1905; Charcotia, Chevreux, 1906; Podoprionides, 

 Walker, 1906. To these have been added in l^QS, Paralicella, 

 Chevreux, and Valettio2Jsis, Lakota, Koroga, and Aruga, all 

 instituted by Professor S. J. Holmes. The preoccupied name 

 Charcotia was relinquished by Chevreux in 1906 in favour of 

 Waldeckia, and in discussing that genus I am here led to propose 

 another, Parawaldeckia, for the New Zealand species named 

 JS^annonyx thomsoni^. As Vijaya falls out, there are now 

 sixty-four genera provisionally accepted for this family. 

 The boundaries between some of them are not very strongly 

 marked, so that a future revision may lead to the disappearance 

 of a name here and there. Tattersall's Metacyphocaris and Cry- 

 belocephalus, 1906, seem scarcely within the limits. 



Mr. A. 0. Walker in his Amphipoda of the National Antarctic 

 Expedition" remarks that: — "As in the Arctic Amphipoda, the 

 Lysianassidse greatly preponderate in the number of genera, 

 species and individuals, in one case amounting to tens of thousands 

 of these last on several occasions." The " Thetis " collection, 

 from a very different latitude, offers a rather striking contrast. 

 For though three genera of this family are represented, each 

 afforded only a single species, one indeed, faii'ly abundant in 

 specimens, but the other two having only three between them.
