A history of the British sessile-eyed Crustacea . omologist, who obtained both sexes from the undersideof the tail of the white Shrimp of the Sussex Coast,Pandalus annulicornis, in the month of April, 1846.

So firmly was thelittle parasite attached to the ventral surface of thepereion between the fifth pair of pereiopoda, that it was PHRYXUS ABPOMINALIS. 237 necessary to remove the creature with an abnormal position was evidently one of someduration, for there had been no female attached to theHippohjte, and the parasite, instead of being white andbleached as these creatures generally are, was of a reddishbrown, and of hard structure. The following vignette is a sketcli of the Bay ofBayndie, near Banff, taken by Mr. Greig from theElfkirk. It is in tins bay that many of the observations on theCrustacea were made for us by Mr. Edward, to whom weare indebted for the next BAV OF BAYNDIE, BANFF ; FROM THE ELFKIRK. 238 BOPYRID^. ISOPODA.
