2. Cypridopsis sp. ? 

 Also of this form only a single specimen, apparently quite 

 young, was found. It may perhaps prove to be identical with 

 the species described by Brady as C. funebris. The length of 

 the specimen is only 0,57 mm. 



Copepoda. 



The species found in the collection belong exclusively to 

 the genus Cyclops. According to a paper published by Mr Brady, 

 only a single Australian species of this genus has been recorded 

 by King. Whether any of the following forms belong to that 

 species or not, I am at present unable to decide, as I have not yet 

 had an opportunity of consulting Mr. King's paper relating to 

 this order. Of the 4 species represented in the collection, one has 

 the anterior antennae composed of the usual number of joint" 

 — 17 — , whereas the other 3 have a less number, viz., 12 and 10. 



1. Cyclops sp. 1. 



This form very closely resembles the Norwegian species, 

 described by the author long ago under the name of C. L xchirfn. 

 Claus 1 . I cannot indeed detect any essential difference between 

 the two; but a closer examination of living specimens is 

 needed in order to decide the identity or non-identity of these 

 forms.

2. Cyclops sp. 2. 



This is a rather distinct species differing markedly from any 

 of the European forms with which I am acquainted. The anterior 

 antennae are comparatively short and only composed of 12 joints 

 The caudal rami, or furca, are narrow linear and somewhat 



1 In all probability, however, this species is not that so named by
