In Giesbrecht's and Schmeil's system (1898), Pseudodiaptomush the seventh genus of Centropagidae; DiaptomiLS is the eighth and Temora the fourteenth genus in the same family. Sars (1902), in a footnote, created the family Pseudo- diaptomidae to include the two genera Pseudodiaptomiis Herrick and Poppella Richard, which he thinks form a natural group between the Diaptomidae and the Temoridae. \'. HUDSON BAY EXPEDITION, 1920. In the course of a biological excursion to the Hudson Bay region in 1920, Mr. Frits Johansen succeeded in bringing back with him a valuable collection of plankton from James Bay. As the locality is a new one, the results were likely to be of special interest, and this expectation has been fully realized. The gathering that I have examined was obtained in an all-night setting of the plankton net below the surface off the east coast of James Bay, about latitude 53K° N., September 9th, 1920. It consisted of a great quantity of one of the commonest and most widely distributed of all marine Calanoid copepods, Acartia clausi, together with other and rarer forms scattered throughout the Acartia clausi is equally abundant in Passamaquoddy Bay and is not a high Arctic species, James Bay lying far to the south of the Arctic circle, while for comparison it may be mentioned that Christiania lies on the 60th parallel of 324.
