A proportion of the above, specimens of luscus and minutus species was 

 examined fresh; the majority were, however, examined some time after 

 being preserved in formaline solution — a 2| per cent, solution of formaline 

 in fresh water. 



All the specimens of esmarkii, with three exceptions, had been pre- 

 served from two to five years, in formaline solution mainly; some were 

 preserved in alcohol. 



The following are localities whence came some of the specimens of 

 esmarkii which were examined : —
