Taken in Plymouth Sound ; and Mr. E. Q. Couch informed me 
that it IS not uncommon among corallines in Mount’s Bay. 
This species appears to have a near representation in different 
parts of the globe. Oaprella geometrica, of the United States ; and 
Caprella rohusta, from Eio J aneiro, as well as Oaprella nodosa, from 
the Mauritius, would no doubt be considered the same species as 
this were they not found in such very distant parts of the globe.
