SERIES I. [Distributed in fifty sets, put up by Mr. Richard Rathbun, under the direction of Professor A. E. Verrill, 1879. ] EXPLANATION. The specimens included in the following list are preserved in alcohol, anless otherwise stated. The authority given for the name is usually the author who first used the combined binomial name herein adopted, and is not necessarily that of the author who first described the species, or gave the specific name. (A name in parentheses is authority for the specific name only.) The species are not all included in each of the fifty sets, but those sent in each numbered set are checked on the list bearing the correspond- ing number. The species now distributed are not to be considered as the most common, but simply those which happen to be at present most abundantly represented in the collections of the Fish Commission, or those which, for other reasons, can be most conveniently distributed at this time, and have been so selected as to give representatives of most of the important groups. It will also be understood that the species included in this list form but a very small proportion (less than one- twelfth) of the total number of species contained in the collections made by the Fish Commission on the New England coast. 4a.

By SIDNEY I. SMITH. Upon the coast of Europe an Amphipod belonging to the genus Che- lura has long been known, associated with the Isopod Limnoria ligno- rum, or “ gribble” of English writers, in destroying the timber of all kinds of submarine structures.
