Land, Fresh- Water, and Marine Crustacea. 105 



of additional localities for species already recorded ; while 

 Mrs Janet Carphin, in the course of her searches for land and 

 fresh- water Mollusca in the district around Edinburgh, has 

 been successful in capturing in the Union Canal the curious 

 Argulus foliaceus 1 — a Crustacean which is the only living 

 representative in Scotland of the Branchiura, a suborder of 

 the Branchiopoda. 



One of the many discoveries made by my friend the 

 late Mr James Bennie, of the Geological Survey, was 

 the occurrence, near Edinburgh, of numerous remains of 

 Lepidurus (Apus) borealis belonging to the Phyllopoda, 

 which is also a suborder of the Branchiopoda. This dis- 

 covery is the more interesting, as no living representative of 

 that suborder is now known to occur in the British Islands. 



With the assistance of the works referred to, and of friends 

 interested in the natural history of the district, the compila- 

 tion of this Catalogue has been more a pleasure than a task. 

 It may also be stated that several valuable monographs of 

 special groups of Crustacea published during recent years, 

 have been of much service to me in the systematic arrange- 

 ment of the species, and though reference to these will be 

 found throughout the Catalogue, a few of the more important 

 of them may be mentioned here, viz. : — 



The Crustacea of Norway, by Professor G. 0. Sars of 

 Christiania. Four volumes of this great work have already 

 been published, viz. — Vol. I., the Amphipoda ; Vol. II., the 

 Isopoda; Vol. III., the Cumacea; and Vol. IV, the Copepoda- 

 Calanoida. Vol. V., the Copepoda-Harpacticoida, is at present 

 in course of publication.
