In our monograph Professor Brady and myself have intro- duced Sars's description and given an outline drawing from his pencil. I have now found three specimens among weeds between tide-marks at Vadso, East Finrnark. It is a very fine and distinct species, and is remarkable for its pure white colour. Paradoxostoma productum, Brady & Norm. Lervig Bay, 25 fath. ; two dredgings in Stoksund, in the Ilar- danger Fiord, in 80-126 fath. ; off Sartoro, in Bergen Fiord, 15-40 iath. Paradoxostoma flexuosum, G. S. Brady. Drobak, 30-100 fath.; Lervig Bay, 3-25 fath. ; off Sartoro, Ber- gen Fiord, 15-40 fath.; Oster Fiord, 100-200 fath. Paradoxostoma injlexum, Brady & Norm., sp. n. Shell, seen from the side, siliquose; greatly curved, greatest height equal to two fifths of the length, behind the middle : ante- rior half of much less height than the posterior, and bending down- wards ; anterior extremity narrow, but well and evenly rounded ; posterior margin much broader, and also well and evenly rounded ; dorsal margin strongly arched throughout, without any angularity in any part, poste- rior declination much more sudden than the anterior; ventral margin deeply con- cave slightly in front of the middle, behind the middle gently convex, the hinder por- tion of the shell thus becoming much higher than the anterior. Seen from above very narrow, greatest width not more than half the height, sides nearly flat, both extre- mities very narrow, but the anterior more acute than the posterior. Length *40 millim. Tide-marks, among weeds, Vadso, Fin- mark. There are only two Ostracoda which this very small species can be said to approach at all in shap
