very few specimens are found in any single gathering. It occurred in four 
of the series of gatherings at present under consideration, all the four 
being from the Clyde, viz. :—In a gathering from Stations III. and IV., 
collected on 24th August 1898; in a  eathering from Station VII. coll ected 
on 24th September; and in one from Station VIIL., collected on 29th 
of the same month. 
Photis longicaudatus (Spence Bate) occurred sparingly in a gathering 
from Station IV., Firth of Clyde. 
Amongst the Podoceride Podocerus palmatus, Stebbing and Robertson, 
and Podocerus pusillus, G. O. Sars, have been obtained in tow-net 
gatherings from the Clyde—the first in a gathering from Station VII. 
collected on 24th September 1898, and the other in a gathering from 
Station VI., collected on 1st September. 
Unciola planiceps, Norman, was obtained in the same gathering from 
Station VI. in which Podocerus pusillus just recorded occurred. Unciola 
appears to be an addition to the Amphipod fauna of the Clyde. 
ISOPODA. 
The following are a few of the more interesting of the Isopoda that 
have been observed in tow-net and other gatherings recently examined. 
Those from the Clyde are, Leptognathia breviremis, Lillejeborg, collected 
at Station XII., between the south end of Arran and the Ayrshire coast ; 
Leptognathia brevimana (Lilljeborg), at Station VL, Ist September 1898. 
Another closely allied species—Tanaopsis laticaudata, G. O. Sars—was 
moderately frequent amongsta gathering of material from Campbeltown Loch 
(Cantyre) collected in May 1897. Munna boecki, Kroyer, which is larger 
than Munna kroyert, Goodsir, and apparently more frequent in the 
Clyde, has been obtained at Whiting Bay, and one or two other places. 
Both Munna boecki and Munna kroyert have been observed in the 
Moray Firth district. 
Paramunna bilobata, G. O. Sars, recorded for the Clyde in 1894, by 
the Rev. A. M. Norman (Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist. (6), vol. xi, p. 
280, footnote), was obtained at Station IV. (Kilbrennan Sound). It has 
already been recorded for Loch Fyne in Part ILI. of the Sixteenth Annual 
Report of the Fishery Board for Scotland. 
Pleurogonium rubicundum, G. O. Sars, was recorded by the Rev. A. 
M. Norman, for the Clyde, in 1894, in the same footnote in which Para- 
munna is recorded (see reference under that species), and is, so far as I 
know, the only record for the Clyde hitherto. Pleurogoniwm inerme, G. 
O. Sars, has been obtained in a gathering from Campbeltown Loch (Can- 
tyre), collected in 1897, and in one from Station IV. (Kilbrennan Sound), 
collected on 24th August 1898. Pleurogonium spinosissimum, G. O. 
Sars, another of these minute Isopods, has been recorded for the Clyde 
by the late Dr. Robertson, of Millport. 
Pseudione crenulata, G. O. Sars (a parasite of Munida rugosa), 
apparently new to Britain, and Pseudione affinis, G. O. Sars (parasite on 
Pandalus montagut), have both been observed in the Clyde, while Bopy- 
roides hippolytis (Kroyer) has been obtained in the Moray Firth.
