ARTHROPODA. Class CRUSTACEA. The sessile-eyed Crustacea of St. Andrews are tolerablynumerous both in species and individuals. Between tide-marks the most conspicuous (as usual) are the swarms ofTalttrus locusta which speedily reduce dead fish and otheranimals to skeletons at high-water mark and considerably be-yond it, and the multitudes of Gammarus locusta and Amphi-thoe podoceroides under stones amongst the rocks. The Podo-cerides, Pherusa bicuspis, Calliopius grandoculis, and Caprellatuberculata are plentiful in the rock-pools, and Corophiumgrossipes in the brackish pools near the estuary of the maculosa abounds both in the tidal region and in deepwater, while Josra Nordmanni occurs in numbers under stonesnear high-water mark. In the laminarian region one of themost abundant, perhaps, is Atylus Swammerdami, which con-gregates in swarms on the loose seaweeds. Siphonoecetustypicus is common among
