(Pruvot): off Vlieland, North Sea (Ehrenbaum). Jersey (A. M. N.*). 
We have recently shown (Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., s.7, March, 1899, p. 151) that 
British records of S. fronfalis refer in reality to S. armata, there being no evidence 
of the occurrence of the former within the British area. The variability of 
certain characters, noted in Plymouth examples of S. armata, is equally present 
in Irish specimens. 
We believe that S. intfermedia, Gourret, from Marseilles, is separated by its 
discoverer from S. armata on quite insufficient grounds. The least unimportant 
distinction that we can discover in the text is the relative shortness of the rostrum ; 
but this disappears in the light of Gourret’s own remark (op. ct., p. 182) that 
Marseilles examples of S. amata have a shorter rostrum than is figured by Sars. 
Pruvot, who enumerates in his list both S. armata and Mysis Griffithsic, Bell, 
may intend thereby to convey the intimation that he rejects Norman’s view of the 
identity of these species with each other. On the other hand the entry may be 
no more than evidence of carelessness of compilation.
