ZOOLOGICAL EESULTS OF A TOUR IN THE FAR EAST. 
THE AMPHIPODA OF TAL^: SAP. 
By Chas. Chilton, M.A., D.Sc, LL.D., etc., Professor of Biology, Canterbury 
College, New Zealand. 
The Amphipoda from Tale Sap prove to be few in number, consisting of 
only eleven species. Of these nine are the same as those from the Chilka Lake. 
Only one species is described as new. Included in the report are two species 
from other localities, the first, Gvandidierella gilesi from Patani River a short distance 
to the south on the same coast as Tale Sap, was taken also at Tale Sap, the 
second, Colomastix pusilla, from Port Weld on the other coast of the Peninsula 
was collected from this locality only. 
The Isopoda which are being dealt with in a separate paper also show close 
resemblance to those of the Chilka Lake. The representatives of the two groups are 
thus of considerable importance in extending our knowledge of the geographical 
distribution of these species in the Far East. 
I wish to thank Miss E. M. Herriott, M.A., assistant at the Canterbury College, 
Biological Laboratory, for preparing the drawings for this paper and for other 
valuable help. 
Amphilochus brunneus Delia Valle. 
Amphilochus brunneus, Chilton, 1921, p. 524; 1923, p. 82. 
Locality. Station 23. East Channel between Kaw Yaw and mainland. Two 
or three specimens, small. 
I refer these specimens to Amphilochus brunneus because the carpal process 
of the second gnathopod does not reach to the palm, and both gnathopods agree 
with the description given by Delia Valle. On the other hand, the molar of 
the mandible is well developed, as it is in the specimens that I have described from 
Chilka Lake and Port Jackson, New South Wales. I have discussed the relation- 
ships of some species of A mphilochus and Gitanopsis in the second paper mentioned 
above. 
Colomastix pusilla Grube. 
Colomastix pusilla, Stebbing, 1906, p. 207. 
Locality. Port Weld, Perak, Federated Malay States. From crevices in a 
sponge, 6-1-16. Several specimens, about 3 mm. in length. 
Among these specimens there were fortunately males and females, both agreeing 
well with the description given by Stebbing. Some of the females were ovigerous, 
but carried only two eggs which appeared very large as compared with the size of the 
animal.
