PflRONIMIDi^. 
C. Claus reviews this family from systematic and anatomical points of 
view, adding some new genera and describing the internal parts, chiefly 
the heart and the ganglions ; the large size of the head and eyes is, 
according to him, more a characteristic of this family than the shape of 
the hands ; both pairs of antennae are much more developed in the male 
than in the female ; the first pair has in each sex several basal joints, but 
only in the male a many -jointed flagellum ; the second pair in the male 
is similar to those of Hyperia, in the female reduced to the first joint 
which is soldered to the head and contains the attennal gland ; the long 
hepatic vessels, which extend from the stomach backwards in other 
Amphipods, are wanting in this family; the eye grows continually by 
formation of new peripherical elements ; the cuticular cornea is renewed 
at each moult b}’^ a special hypodermic stratum, not by the crystalline 
cones. Arb. z. Inst. Wien, ii. 88 pp. 8 pis. ; an abstract in J. R. Micr. Soc.
