area. In the genus Pmcdoinna there are three new species — 
P. calloplura, P. Kciiipi^ and P. naiiuvi, and a northern 
species, P. affinc, G. O. Sars, added to our area. Aniblyops 
abbrcviatay G. O. Sars, is another boreal addition ; while in 
the genus Boreomysis, B. arctica (Kroyer), B. trideris. G. O. 
Sars, B. vicgalops, G. O. Sars, and B. microps^ G. O. Sars, are 
new to the Britannic area. Mysidetes Farrafii is an interesting 
new species from deep water to the west of Kerry. There are 
a number of additions and corrections in the supplemental 
paper, which, like the earlier, is illustrated by plates beautifully 
drawn and executed. 
Echinoderms from the Co. Galway harbours and the deep 
Atlantic waters are enumerated in a paper by Mr. S. W. 
Kemp,^ Twenty-eight species were dredged in the harbours 
of Ballynakill and Bofin — nearly 60 per cent, of all the British 
species known from less than 20 fathoms depth. The deep- 
water list contains 73 species, and includes all the forms that 
have been found off our western coast outside the 50-fathom 
line. There are several faunistic additions. Among the 
Asteroidea Solaster affifiis (Dan. and Koren), first discovered 
by the Norwegian North Atlantic expedition, has been 
dredged 40 miles W.N.W. of Cleggan Head in 70 fathoms, 
and a specimen from the " I^ord Bandon " cruise, included 
by Prof Haddon under 5. paposstcs, is now referred by Mr. 
Kemp to S. affi7iis. Pkctonaster Pareli (Diib. and Koren), 
dredged in 220 fms. off Mayo, is brought within the Britannic 
area; a previous record from 1,360 fms. having been made by 
the "Porcupine" expedition. Turning to the Ophiuroidea, 
we find an interesting northern addition to our fauna in 
Ophiacajitha abyssicola (G. Q. Sars), dredged in 380 fathoms 
off the Mayo coast. There are several species now recorded 
from various localities that had hitherto been represented 
only by a single Irish specimen.
