Naushonia crangonoides Kingsley. 
Kingsley, 1895, p. 95 (sp. nov.); Thompson, 1903, 
p. 1; G. M. Gray, in “Biological Notes” (Bul- 
letin U. S. Fish Commission for 1899); M. J. 
Rathbun, 1905, p. 18. 
Only two adult specimens of this decapod are 
recorded. The type was collected by H. C. 
Bumpus on Naushon Island; the second was 
found by G. M. Gray about 10 inches deep in 
the sand, on the shore of Ram Island, in July, 
1899. The second specimen was a female with 
eggs (July 22); zoeae reported as common in 
the summers of 1901 and 1902 by Thompson, 
who succeeded in rearing these to an advanced 
stage.

zards Bay, at Fish Hawk station 7674,* and in 
the eastern part of Vineyard Sound, at Phala- 
rope station 12 (latter a fragment). 
According to Bumpus, this species was found 
with eggs on July 1 and again on July 13 (the 
latter segmenting); others with advanced 
embryos July 18.

Abundant at Nobska Beach, Cataumet Harbor 
and Scraggy Neck. Sandy shores at low- 
water mark, and sandy bottoms in shallow

Reported by Mead and Bumpus as without eggs 
in April and May; found to carry them during 
the latter part of June and throughout July. 
Many females still bore eggs on July 31. — Sum- 
ner. J. S. Kingsley (Marine Biological Labora-

Distribution pretty general throughout Vine- 
yard Sound and Buzzards Bay. Dredged by 
the Survey in 2 to 17 fathoms, on quite various 
bottoms. Taken also in shallow water along 
shore— e. g., at Nobska Point and Tarpaulin 
Cove. This species, locally, is mainly found in 
the shells of Polynices heros and P. duplicata; 
sometimes in Busycon canaliculatum , B. car- 
ica, and Littorina litorea.
