276 REV. T. E. R. STEBBING ON STALK-EYED CRUSTACEA MALACOSTRACA 



an important generic character, the male should be referred to Acantholithus, 

 Stimps., the female to Paralomis. I have preferred to place the species with the 

 latter, as it shows some resemblance to P. aculeatus, Hend." 



Paralomis granulosus (Jacquinot).

The Scotia specimens of this tolerably abundant species are small, the carapace 

 of the larger, a female, being 36 mm., of the smaller only 23 mm., in length and 

 breadth. The variations which develop in specimens of different sizes are discussed 

 by Lagerberg, who had at his disposal six specimens, the smallest measuring 17 

 mm. by 17 '5 mm., while the largest, a male, had a carapace 90 mm. long and 95 mm. 

 broad. He figures the last four joints of the right male chela as measuring 

 133 mm. in length and displaying very conspicuous teeth on the wrist. In the 

 Scotia female specimen these teeth are very prominent but less irregular. Lager- 

 berg records 100 m. as the greatest hitherto known depth for the occurrence of this 

 species, which is practically in agreement with the Scotia record. 



Locality. — Burdwood Bank, lat. 54° 25' S., long. 57° 32' W. ; depth 56 fathoms 

 or 102 m. ; December 1, 1903 ; Station 346.

Pagurus arrosor (Hcrbst). 

 1908. Pagurus arrosor, Stebbing, Ann. S. Afr. Mus., vol. vi. part i. p. 22. 

 Under the above reference I have discussed the synonymy and interesting 

 ornamentation of this species. 



Locality. — A characteristic specimen, in a shell of the genus Triton, was obtained 

 by the Scotia from coaling jetty, No. 1, Cape Town docks, May 14, 1904 ; Station 477. 



Pagurus calidus, Bisso.

1905. ,, ,, Alcock, Indian Decap. Crust., part ii. fasc. i. p. 170 (ample synonymy). 



This handsomely coloured species is strikingly like in form to P. arrosor, as 

 observed both by Milne-Edwards and Heller, but in place of the scale-like mark- 

 ings on the first three pairs of perseopods, here there are quantities of pointed 

 tubercles interspersed with fascicles of hairs. 



Locality. — From Station 507, Clarence Bay, Ascension Island, the Scotia obtained 

 two specimens, each in a shell of the genus Strombus.
