other rather marine forms to recent immigration from the sea 
upwards, but thinks that they have remained from the old times 
when this soil was part of the sea. The said species are all 
found by dredging, and not on the surface of the water. The 
localities are exactly described ; and in the introductory remarks 
the i)rincipal Ostracoda of salt marshes and of estuaries arc also 
named ; in the latter marine and freshwater species are mixed. 
A list of 84 species found in the river-estuaries of England and 
Scotland, and another of 99 from the English Pen-district and 
Holland, terminate the paper. Ann. N. II. (4) vi. pp. 1-33. 
Black Sea. The Crustacea are reviewed by Czerniavski in a 
somewhat long paper written in Russian ; most of them are 
identical with Mediterranean species — as, for example, Steno- 
rhynchus longirostris, Pilummis hwtelluSj Eriphia spinifronSj 
Pachygrapsus marmoratuSj Diogenes varians, &c. The author 
has made his observations at Jalta, on the south-eastern coast of 
the Crimea : he enumerates 80 species, 71 of which have been ob- 
served in about 150 square fathoms on stones in a depth of under 
5 feet, in the months of J une and August (old style) . Seven 
other species have been obtained with the surface-net of J. Mul- 
ler ; only two species, Portunus holsatus and CalUanassa subter- 
ranean have been observed in a greater depth than 5 feet. The 
author is inclined to think the Black Sea much richer in Crus- 
tacea than the Belgian shores, and even the British seas. 
Another list of Crustaceans found in the Black Sea, containing 55 species, 
some of which are new, hut not described, is given by P. Marcusen in the 
same journal, pp. 177, 178. 
Twenty-nine species of Ostracoda found in various depths, from 10-260 
fathoms, in the Oulf of St. Lawrence are enumerated by Brady, l.c. pp. 460- 
454; some new or remarkable species described and figured. He has also 
described in Berchon and Polin’s M^nds de la Mer’ others from the Wed 
Indies^ p. 191; the Cape-Venl Islands, p. 192 ; Pido Pinany, p. 194 ; the Straits 
of Magellan, pp. 198-202. 
America. A few Brazilian Crustacea are mentioned in the very prolix 
description of the Imperial and National Museum at Rio Janeiro, published 
by L. Netto, pp. 305-307. 
Forty species, most of them new, are described, eight from Central Ame- 
rica, Peru, &c., by Sid. Smith, Tr. Conn. Acad. ii. pp. 113-174.
