﻿A Catalogue of Recent Cephalopoda. 275 



Ouroteuthis, P. Fischer, in, Filhol, '85a, p. 175. 



0- megaptera, Fischer, in Filhol, '85a, p. 175. 



In the year 1885 the late Dr Paul Fischer showed me some 

 cephalopods to which he had attached the name Ouroteuthis^ 

 and this name has since appeared in print. Speaking from 

 memory, I beheve these specimens were those referred to Chiro- 

 teuthopsis by H. Fischer and Joubin, :o7, j case the 



name Ouroteuthis megaptera, being uncharacterised, has no 

 validity. It is mentioned here merely as a warning to prevent 

 its being used again. 



Doratopsis, de Rochebrune, 1884. 

 On the question whether this genus is merely a larval form 

 of Chiroteuthis see above. 



D. sagitta, Chun, :o8. [Cape Verde and S. Indian Ocean.] 

 D. exophthalmica, Chun, : 08. [Madeira and S. Indian Ocean.] 

 D. lippula, Chun, :o8. [Benguela current, S.E. Africa.] 



Mastigoteuthis, Verrill, 1881. 



M. cordiformis, Chun, :o8. [Nias Channel, Sumatra.] 



M. dentata, Hoyle, 104, p. 34, pi. vi. figs. 8-11. [Off Galapagos 



Is.; off Cape Mala, Gulf of Panama.] 

 M. flammea, Chun, : 08. [Guinea current.] 

 M. glaucopis, Chun, : 08 (glaukopis). [E. African coast.] 

 M. levimana, Lonnberg, '97, p. 605 [Lat. 43° N., long. 24° W.] 



Grimalditeuthid^, Pfeffer, :oo, pp. 154, 187. 



Grimalditeuthis, Joubin, '98. 



G. richardi, Joubin, '98, :0I, p. 79, pi. iv. figs. 1, 2, pi. v. figs. 

 1-13, pi. X. figs. 1, 2. 

 This is almost certainly synonymous with Chiroteuthis 

 bonplandi (Yerany), which has been referred to the same 

 genus: see Pfeffer, :00, p. 188. 



Cranchiid^, Gray, 1849 {e7n.). ♦ 

 Cranchiceformes, Steenstrup, 1861. 



Cranchia, Leach, 1817. 

 C scabra, Leach, 1817. 



0. scabra, Hoyle, :04, p. 43. pi. x. fig. 11 [figure and description of 

 arms and tentacles].
