Station.— On mud banks ; Cuming ! Broderip. We found 

 only one specimen alive. It was among stones in a muddy 

 place, near low water mark. From the number of imperfect 

 specimens, wticli we saw occupied by hermit crabs near low 

 water mark, it seemed probable that its usual station was at a 

 lower level.
