Abstract

Notes on the specimen now enumerated accord
with the diagnosis of the New South Wales species Palinurus
Hugelli contained in Mr. Hassell's Catalogue of the "Australasian
Stalk and Sessile-eyed Crustacea," and with which
I have no hesitation in identifying it. To make more sure of
this suggested identification, I remitted drawings of the more
essential features of this crawfish to my brother, Mr. Acland
Kent, at present residing in Sydney, asking him to compare
them with the typical examples in the Sydney Museum.
