A history of the British sessile-eyed Crustacea . ), indeed, stated in hisdescription of the species Hocalite inconnue (a specimenhas, however, since been received by the British Museumfrom Iceland, from Mr. Drewsen), so that, except forthe unnecessary doubt expressed by Leach in his refe-rence to Pennants Oniscus psora* there is no recordedauthority for its insertion in the British list. We areenabled, however, to introduce it unquestionably on thefaith of a fine specimen in the Bell collection (now atOxford, obtained at Scarborough by Mr. Bean, by whomit was presented, with other interesting species fromthat locality, to Professor Bell). This specimen hassupplied the figures at the head of this Hope collection also possesses a specimen fromNova Scotia, and we have received it recently fromMr. Gregor, who dredged it in the Moray Frith. * Althougli unquestionably this is the On. psoia of Pennant, it is doubtfulwhether it be identical with the species so named by previous authors. 286 ^GID^.
