Barnacles from Irish Seas. 589 S. velutinum, which is closely related to S. forma}, Ales- sandri, of the Italian Miocene*, is common on both sides of the Atlantic in northern latitudes, and has been taken as far south as Tristan d'Acunha. It also occurs in the Indian Ocean. The bathymetric range is extraordinary—from 35 to over 1000 fathoms. The Irish collection includes five speci- mens (the largest with a capitular length of 27 mm.) from S. R. 363, 51° 22' N., 12° 0' W., 695

The new species appears to be most nearly related to Scalpellum gemma, Aurivillius, and Scalpellum grimaldi of the same author, but possesses two extra valves below the rostrum and a narrower carina. S. gemma was described from Greenland and S. grimaldi from the Azores. Scalpellum (Smilium) kempi, sp. n. Capitulum large, triangular, moderately compressed, bearing 15 stout white valves, which are more or less imbricate and project at the tips. Carina straight, narrowly triangular. Scalpellum {Smilium) kempi, sp. n. X 3. in lateral view, bluntly keeled posteriorly, bearing about six transverse ridges and distinctly striated vertically. Terga vertical, triangular, large, occupying more than half the capitular area, slightly retroverted at the tip, having a distinct vertical keel along the middle line.
