Hippolyte brevirostris Dana. 



Dana, United States Exploring Expedition, Crust., p. 566, pi. 36, fig. 5, 1352 

 (given as H. curvirostris on plate). 



A dry female specimen about 24 mm - long, from Vancouver Island, 

 agrees well with Dana's figure and description.

Several small dry specimens from Vancouver Island, and an alcoholic 

 specimen from shallow dredgings, Queen Charlotte Islands. The last 

 specimen is Y4 mm - long ; the carapax including rostrum, 33 mm - ; rostrum, 

 17 -5 mm -; there are ten teeth in the dorsal crest, half being on the 

 rostrum and half upon the carapax, and in addition there are three at 

 the tip and five beneath the rostrum. 



In general appearance, and particularly in the form and dentition of 

 the carapax and rostrum, this species approaches very near to P. 

 platyceros Brandt (Middendorff s Sibirische Eeise, ii., p. 123, pi. 5, fig. 

 20, 1851). But, according to Brandt's description, the carapax of the 

 platyceros is clothed with short hairs, while in the Dance the carapax 

 and abdomen are smooth and entirely naked. 



Pandalus pubescentulus Dana. 



An alcoholic specimen from " shallow dredging, Port Simpson to 

 north end of Vancouver Island." The specimen is 49 mm - long ; the 

 carapax including rostrum, 25 ; rostrum, 14. There are fourteen teeth 

 in the dorsal crest, five on the carapax and nine on the rostrum ; the 

 -extremity of the rostrum is unarmed above except at the tip, which is
