May we not look for the explanation of the matter here ? P. j^ubescens may not occur in European waters. If only Kroyeri is found there, and it is identical with Bell's Thompsoni^ then the name Thompsoni will have to be applied to the so-called ji^wJescens of European waters and to the Kroyeri of American waters. It is to be hoped that European collections will be re-examined and the result made known. In the meantime we shall not expect British naturalists to recognize two species by separating specimens with little hair from those having less, or to accuse naturalists on this side of the water of having done tliis in the past.
