330 Part III. — Eighth Annual Report 



Diastylus rugosa, G. O. Sars, Middelhavets Cumaceer, p. 98, 

 tab. 34-38 (1879), 

 Habitat. — Largo Bay and other parts of the Forth. This seems to be 

 a well-marked species, though it has not previously been recorded for the 

 Estuary. 



Campylaspis affinis, G. O. Sars, £ $ . 



Campylaspis affinis, G. O. Sars, Nye Dvb rands Crustaceer fra 

 Lofoten, p. 160 (1870); Extract, p. 16. 

 Habitat. — Vicinity of the Bass Bock, rare. The cephalic shield is 

 thickly sprinkled with purple spots, which impart to it a somewhat uni- 

 form purplish colour. The Rev. T. R. R. Stebbing, to whom I submitted 

 the specimen, points out that it comes very close to C. rubrieunda 

 (Liljeborg) in the form of the tail appendages; it differs in the coloration. 



SCHIZOPODA. 



MYSID.E. 



Erythrops serrata, G. O. Sars. 



Nematopus serratus, G. 0. Sars, Beretning om en Sommeren 

 (1862), foretagen Zoologisk Reise i Christianias og Trondhjems 

 Stifter, p. 43. 

 Nematopus serratus, Norman, Last Report on Dredging among 



the Shetland Isles : Report Brit. Assoc. (1868), p. 270. 

 Erythrops serrata, G. O. Sars, Mon. over de ved Norges Kyster 

 Forkommende Mysider., Frste Hefte, p. 27, tab. ii. figs. 1-2 

 (1870). 

 Habitat. — South-east of the Bass Rock 4 or 5 miles, rather rare. In 

 this species the outside edges of the antennal scales are deeply toothed, 

 with the teeth pointing forwards, and thus differs from the other two 

 species of Erythrops recorded for Britain. There appears to have been 

 some confusion in previous records of the distribution of Nyctiphanes 

 norcegica and Boreophausia raschii, the first being understood to be a more 

 common species. I find, on the contrary, that the latter is comparatively 

 abundant, especially in the outward part of the Estuary, while the other is 

 rather rare. 



MOLLUSCA. 



Miss J. E. Carphin kindly placed her extensive collections of Forth 

 Mollusca at my service, which has enabled me to include a few interesting 

 additions to the local list of species belonging to this group. 



LAMELLIBRANCHIATA. 



Lucinid^:. 



Diplodonta rotundata (Montagu). 



Telene rotundata, Mont., Test. Brit., p. 74, t. ii. fig. 3. 

 Diplodonta rotundata, Jeffreys, Brit. Conch., vol. ii. p. 254; vol. 

 v. pi. xxxiii. fig. 4. 

 One living specimen of this pretty bivalve was found at Newhaven Pier 

 by Miss J. E. Carphin. It had been brought in from the outer part of 

 the Estuary on the fishermen's lines. 



Cardiid^e. 

 Gardium nodosum, Turton. 



Cardium nodosum, Turk, Conch. Dith., p. 186, t. xiii. fig. 8. 

 Cardium nodosum, Jeffreys, Brit. Conch., vol. ii. p. 283 ; vol. v. 

 pi. xxxv. fig. 4.
