A MEDLEY OF ANIMALS 40B 



brought togeMier, and, as it were, JLimbled up into a sort 

 of compound animal, so that when the Pagurid devours 

 a shrimp, its gastronomic exertions are supplying food 

 through the remnants of a shapeless Oirripede to a degraded 

 Isopod. This remarkable arrangement on the body of a 

 hermit-crab, itself occupying the shell of a departed mol- 

 lusc, must be regarded as the result of special creation by 

 those who still uphold the venerable doctrine of the fixity 

 of species. What a gasp an intelligent mind must give at 

 swallowing such an explanation ! 



GryptonisGiis paguri, Fraisse, 1878, was found on Pelto- 

 gctster Bodriguezii, Fraisse, on Glibanarius miscmthropus, 

 Kisso, at Mahon in Minorca. It is described as flat and 

 worm-like, much resembling the preceding species. 



Cryptoniscus larvceformis, Giard, 187-1', on Sacculina 

 carcini. 



Danalia, Giard, 1887, was substituted for part of 

 Zevxo, Kossmann, 1872, preoccupied. 



Danalia ourvata (Fraisse), 1878, on Siu'culina nerjleda, 

 Fraisse, from the Bay of Naples, is said to be round and 

 rolled together, very like the Cabirops lernaodiscoides of 

 Kossmann. Dr. Fraisse says that it is either a simple 

 parasite on the Sacculina, or placed beside it on the crab 

 Inachus scorpio, Fabricius, but that in any case it has to 

 draw its nourishment from the roots of the Sacculina. 



Danalia Lohiancoi, Giard and Bonnier, 1890, on Portu- 

 nascus corrugatus, Giard. 



Danalia Dohrni, Giard, 1887, on Grapsisaccus Benedeni, 

 Kossmann. The Zeuxo longicollis of Kossmann, 1880, was 

 found on the pleon of Ghlorodius (Leptodius) exaratus, 

 Milne-Edwards, in company with but remote from a Sac- 

 culina. 



Liriopsis, Max Schultze, 1859, was substituted for 

 Liriope, Eathke, 1843, preoccupied. 



Liriopsis pyymoBa (Rathke), 1843, on Feltogaster paguri, 

 Eathke. The first antennee have a vei-y thick bundle of 

 hairs attached to the outer side of the basal joint in the 

 male. 



Liriopsis monophthalma (Fraisse), 1878, on Feltogaster
