esculentus, among others. Some of these urchins I put into a 

 bottle containing strong methylated spirit; after washing 

 them in this spirit, an examination of the residue revealed a 

 considerable number of specimens of this rare Copepod, and 

 of little else.

Hab. — Frequent in the shells of living " Horse Mussels," 

 Mytilus modiolus. The species was obtained in most of the 

 large mussels examined.

Hab. — Frequent in the shells of the Clam, Pecten oper- 

 cularis, dredged on the clam -beds to the east of Inchkeith, 

 but this Copepod was first observed by I. C. Thompson in 

 the shell of living Pecten maximus, hence its name. This is 

 not a true Lichomolgus, and as it agrees very closely with 

 Herrmannella, I place it meanwhile under that genus.
