It will be observed from the various Tables, and also from what has 
been already stated concerning the distribution of these crustaceans in 
the Firth of Forth district, that, generally speaking, they are much more 
numerous in the winter and spring months than in summer; and not 
only is it the case that a greater variety of species appear to be present 
in the estuary during those colder months, but it is evident that some of 
them at least are also individually much more numerous. The recorded 
results of the Garland researches, even during that part of the year 
which seems to be most favourable to the presence of these organisms,
