A parasitic amphipod, apparently quite identical with this species of 
Europe, was found in the mouth of a goose-fish (Lophius Americanus) 
taken in Vineyard Sound. A species, apparently the same, was also 
taken from the back of a skate (Raia levis) in the Bay of Fundy the 
past summer. It is readily distinguished by its broad depressed form, 
and by having the third to fifth pairs of legs very stout and their distal 
segments forming powerful talon-like claws, while the first and second 
pairs are small and slender.

Taken at the surface in Vineyard Sound, in March, by Mr. V. N. Ed- 
wards. Itis abundant, in company with Calliopius leviuseulus, about 
the Bay of Fundy in pools left by the tide, and ranges north to Labra- 
dor and Greenland.

GAMMARUS ANNULATUS Swith, sp. nov. (p. 314.) 
Anterior margin of the head produced each side beneath the anten- 
nul into a truncated lobe, which extends farther forward than in G. 
ornatus ; eyes scarcely reniform, less elongated than in G. ornatus, and 
their lower margins not reaching, by considerable, the anterior border 
of the truncated lobe. Antenne longer than the antennule; the ulti- 
mate segment of the peduncle longer than the penultimate ; the flagel- 
lum much more slender, the segments more elongated and with fewer 
hairs, than in G. ornatus. Hands of the first pair of legs more elongated 
than in G. ornatus, and the palmary margins very oblique. Propodus in
