300 CRUSTACEA OF NORTHUMBERLAND AND DURHAM 



species. The specimen from the Northumberland coast 

 remained in Mr. Bate's possession, so that it must be doubtful 

 what it really was. Sars suggests, and perhaps rightly, 

 that it was Pseiidione Hyndmanni (Bate) (G. O. Sars, Crust, 

 Nor., Isop., p. 207, cf. p. 203). 



[It may be here mentioned that while the work of Bate and 

 Westwood was in course of publication, species of Amphipoda 

 and Isopoda, which could not be identified, were sent to Mr. 

 Bate for use in his work. Manuscript names of some of these, 

 including that of the foregoing parasitic Isopod, as well as 

 Heiscladus longicaudattis and Namia caudadentata were sent 

 by Mr, Bate, and entered in the lists (Nat. Hist. Trans. 

 North, and Dur., vol. i., 1865, p. 25), but the descriptions 

 were never published, nor were the specimens returned. They 

 were presumably lost, as IVEr. Bate was usually very exact in 

 the return of specimens.] 



Order VI.— AMPHIPODA 



Prof. A. Meek has during the last few years been doing 

 excellent work on the Amphipoda, and the following list will 

 show how much it owes to his researches (see Report on 

 Scientific Investigations of Northumberland Sea Fisheries 

 Committee, 1891, and Nat. Hist. Trans. Northumberland, 

 Durham, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne, vol. xiv., pt. i, p. 57); 

 but many of his records are now first given here. At p. 256 

 the number of Amphipods from the two counties is given as 

 130, but it will be found that in the following notes more than 

 that number are recorded ; additional species having been 

 discovered by Professor Meek.
