those of this species, except, perhaps, the middle scale 
of the tail. Possessing, however, only a single speci- 
men, which had been mounted for the microscope before 
we received it, we have not been able, from its position, 
to ascertain the precise form of this appendage. We 
assume it to be single, with a central cleft ; but a small 
notch at the extremity of each division is very con- 
stantly associated with a double tail-piece, so that it is 
not impossible that this may be found to be the case in 
the species now under consideration. 
The colour of the animal, when received by us, was of 
a reddish yellow. 
The accompanying vignette represents a view of Ailsa 
Crag, from a sketch kindly lent to us by our friend Dr. 
Scott of Melby, Shetland.
