[Read 8th March, 1889.] 
THE collections made this year (1888) of the Podophthal- 
mata, Cumacea, Isopoda, and Amphipoda, are undoubtedly 
_ the most interesting since the foundation of the Liverpool 
Marine Biology Committee. Five species of the first, 
three of the second, four of the third, and fifteen of the- 
fourth of these orders are new to our fauna, while probably 
one Isopod and four Amphipoda are new to the British 
lists, two of these latter being new to science. The 
collections that have been examined were :— 
L From Puffin Island, collected at the following dates. 
a. March 24th, by Prof. Herdman and three others, 
chiefly by dredging and with the weighted tow-net, in~ 
the Turbot Hole. 
b. July 24th, by Prof. Herdman, Mr. Hurst, and 
Mr. Dutton of Chester. 
c. August 15th, by Mr. Hurst and Mr. Clubb, off_
