Schellenberg, 1929, p. 196 (key to genera). Genus Phippsiella, Schell. Schellenberg, 1925 {Mitt. Zool. Mm. Berlin, xi), p. 200; 1926 b, p. 220; 1929, p. 196. Stephensen, 1925, p. 130. In the key (1929) the 2nd joint of peraeopod 6 is said to be expanded in Stego- cephalopsis but not in Phippsiella; this is evidently a typographical transposition. This joint is expanded in Phippsiella. The genus comprises two northern species, and kergneleni from the southern hemisphere. Phippsiella rostrata, (Fig. 33). Occurrence: St. 158. South Georgia. 1 <?, 2 ?? (1 ovig.) 17-18 mm. Description. Close to similis Sars. Integument indurated, with scattered punctae. Rostrum long, reaching almost to end of peduncle of 1 st antenna. Faint indications of ocular pigment, but no lenses. Side- plate 4 received into a slight groove on side-plate 5. Postero-inferior angle of pleon segments 2 and 3 acutely produced, that on segment 2 more so than that on segment 3; margin above on segment 3 smooth. Telson cleft to half its length. „ „,.'.„ „, Fig. 33. Phippsiella rostrata, a. Pleon segments 2 Peraeopods4and5,2ndjomtexpanded, and 3 b Head antenna x< hind margin nearly straight in peraeopod 4, convex in peraeopod 5, with feeble and widely-spaced notches, lower hind corner rounded. Genus Andaniexis, Stebb. Stebbing, 1906, p. 94. In view of the new species here described Stebbing's diagnosis needs a slight emenda- tion as regards the 2nd gnathopod. Andaniexis australis, (Fig. 34). Occurrence: 1. St. 87. South-east Atlantic. 4 $$ 4-4-5 mm. Types. 2. St. 89. South Africa. 1 ? 5 mm. Description. Resembling abyssi (Boeck) except in the following particulars. Gnathopod 2, 6th joint not very slender, almost as wide and scarcely longer than 5th, and subequal in length to the 6th joint of gnathopod
