I have examined the branchiae of A. Klamathensis, A. nigres- 

 cens, and A. Gambelii, of the American Astaci. In all of them 

 the branchial formula is the same as in A. fluviatilis, there being 

 three rudimentary branchiae on each side of the thorax. In 

 A. nigrescens the two anterior ones are short, but thick. They 

 are more highly developed in A. Gambelii than in any other spe- 

 cies of Astacus examined, presenting an interesting approach in 

 structure to the perfectly developed branchia. Each of the rudi- 

 mentary branchiae is much larger than in any other species, and is 

 jointed at a short distance from the base. At the joint there are, 

 in the intermediate pair, two short lateral filaments ; in the ante- 

 rior and posterior pairs, the main stem bears one filament.
