This fine species was obtained in the same gathering with the one last 
recorded, and is the first time it has been noticed in the Firth of Forth. 
As will be observed from the synonymy, the genus-name has undergone 
several changes. Moreover, the colour of the living specimens, as shown 
by the drawings given in the 15th Annual Report of the Fishery Board 
for Scotland, is somewhat singular, and more ornate than is usually met 
with amongst the copepod-fauna of our seas; unfortunately, however, 
the bright colouration is very evanescent in specimens preserved in 
alcohol.

This, which is also a moderately large species, was obtained in a 
gathering of dredged material collected at the north-west end of Inch- 
keith on May 23rd, and in another gathering collected near North Craig 
on July 4th, 1901; one or two of the female specimens obtained in the 
last gathering were carrying ovisacs. 
Bradypontius magniceps, though apparently widely distributed, is 
not very common, very few specimens being found in any single 
gathering.

A female specimen (fig. 7) of Cancerilla tubulata was obtained in a 
gathering of crustacea collected in the deep water (60 fathoms) off Aber- 
deen on August 2nd, 1901. The species, which appears to be rare in the 
British seas, has been recorded by Mr I. C. Thompson from the Irish 
Sea*, and Dr. Canu has described it in his work on the Copepods found 
near Boulogne.y This is the first time I have met with it notwith- 
standing that a careful look-out for it has been kept up for several 
years.
