arctic E. gigantea, and obtaiued 50 miles W.N.W. of the 
Tearaght, while three Norwegian species, E. latirostris^ G. O. 
Sars, E. viegalura, G. O. Sars^ and E. pioduda^ G. O. Sars, are 
now fiisi recorded for the Britannic, and another, E. 
pho.Uangiuvi, G. O. Sars, for the Irish area. Lipomera 
lamellata^ dredged 60 miles W. of Achill in 199 fathoms, is the 
type of a new genus. Another new genus — Scyracepon — is 
founded on kS. hiberadosa, belonging to the Epicarida, dredged 
48 miles W.N.W. of the Tearaght in 337 fathoms. To the 
same tribe — parasitic on other crustaceans — belongs 
Pleiirocryptella fof7nosa (Giard and Bonnier), taken in 500 
fathoms west of the Porcupine Bank — a Canarian species, and 
Asconisais simplex, G. O. Sars — a Norwegian species, neither 
before dredged in Britannic waters. Aspidophryxiis peltaius^ 
G. O. Sars, another Norwegian species already recorded from 
the Scottish coasts, is new to the Irish list. 
In a special section of the paper dealing with the Isopoda 
of Ballynakill and Bofin Harbours, Mr. Tattersall records 
fourteen further additions to the marine fauna of Ireland. 
These are: — Leptognathia longiremis (lyilljeb.), Paratariais Batei, 
Sars, Anthura gracilis (Montagu), Eurydice spi7iigera, Hansen, 
E. tnmcata (Norman), Lini07ia Iig7i07-um (Rathke), Idotea 
7icglecta, G. O. Sars, laera mari7ia (Fab.), /. Nord77ia7i7ii (Rathke), 
Miiima Kroye7'i, Goodsir\ M. Fabricii (Kroyer), Pleurog07iiu77i 
7ubiacnd2un, G. O. Sars, Bofjyriis squillaru?n, I^atr., and 
Bopyrina virbii (Walz). Altogether the paper increases the 
Irish list by twenty-three species, and the Britannic by fourteen, 
while ten species are recorded as new to science, five of which 
are referred to new genera. Mr. Tattersall now reckons the 
British and Irish marine Isopoda as numbering 134 species 
" made up of roughly, one-half boreal, and one quarter southern 
types, and one quarter representing forms at present only 
known from British and Irish waters." The present paper 
contains a description and figures of one extra-Britannic 
species — Heterophryxus appe7idiculatusy G. O. Sars, from the 
Bay of Biscay. Its inclusion in a paper on the " Marine Fauna 
of the Coast of Ireland " may possibly cause confusion to 
recorders and students of distribution.

Hist, of Ireland,' vol, iv., p. 413), in a list of Pycnogonida 1
