Studies on marine ostracods : pt. 1, Cypridinids, halocyprids and polycopids. iJLLERs state-ment (19U8, p. 85) ,,das basale Glied (of the endo-podite) is ,,kurz, mit einer Borstetigruppe am Vorder-rand nahe der Basis, zu der noch eine weiter distalstehendc kommen kann. Whether or not a variationis present in the last-mentioned bristle I have, of course, been unable to decide; it seems to me probable, iiowever, that there is no variation,but that the statement is based on some specimens that were defective in this character. Thisassumption is supported by the state of affairs in C. (V.) norvegica, in which species thisbristle is always found; cf. also several other species, for instance those of Gigantocypris andDoloria. The specimen investigated by me had this bristle developed as in C (V.) norvegica. Mandible: — This is extremely similar to that of C. (V.) norvegica. The anteriorside of the second endopodite joint has comparatively few (eight were observed) moreor less long bristles with short, fine hairs and has from seventeen to nineteen cleaning Ki-.

Maxilla: — This shows close agreement with the maxilla in C. (V.) norvegica. Thefirst endite of the p r o t o p o d i t e has eleven, the second five and the third five masticatorybristles. Distally-posteriorly the first endopodite joint has three bristles; the end jointhas thirteen bristles; a few of the a-bristles have, however, some few rather strong secondaryteeth at the middle. Fifth limb: — Only the left limb of one sexually mature female was investigated— This showed a very close agreement with the corresponding appendage in C. (V.) norvegica,the only differences that were observed bei
