Van Beneden, in a paper on the cetacea and their para- sites, (loc. cit.) mentions that several individuals of this species were found on a Southern Right whale {Balcena Australis), among the cirripeds that incrusted it. He describes it as having the head, thorax, and abdomen, separated from each other, and the body with numerous and long silky hairs, that are plumose* He could not have said in more ex- plicit terms that it was a Glyciphagus; for these, as the reader knows, are its special characters.
