Text Appearing Before Image:
This is a very common littoral speciesin Stewart Island, where I have taken it in great numbers under stonesbetween tide-marks. It is extremely active, running and jumping vigor-ously when pursued. The males are nearly an inch long, and have thefirst five segments of the pereion corrugated more or less, the anterior andposterior margins of the segments being strongly ridged. (2.) 0. nova-Zealandlia, Sp. Bate. The description of this species in theBrit. Mus. Cat., and which has been transferred without material change toMiers Cat. of N.Z. Crust., appears to have been drawn up from a singlespecimen, and its habitat is given very widely as New Zealand, presentedby Captain Bolton. I am inclined to think that this is a form of a poly-morphic species, which also includes 0. sylvicola and 0. tenuis, and shalltherefore refer to it again further on. (3.) 0. telluris, Sp. Bate.

I have taken it insuch localities myself in great abundance, both at Otago heads and at manyspots in Stewart Island, but always within a few yards of the beach, andjust where the sea and bush soil meet. In Facts for Darwin,* p. 27,Fritz Miiller—somewhat led astray by the habitat given by Sp. Bate—says :— I cannot refrain from taking this opportunity of remarking that(so far as appears from Spence Bates catalogue), for two different kinds ofmales (Orchestia telluris and sylvicola) which live together in the forests ofNew Zealand, only one form of female is known, and hazarding the suppo-sition that we have here a similar case.* It does not seem to me to bep
