Excerpt from The Annals and Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 4: Including Zoology, Botany, and Geology, Being Af Continuation of the "Annals" Combined With Laudonand Charlseworth's 'Magazine of Natural History;'_ The present paper contains descriptions of all the species of Oxyrhyucha in the British-Museum collection that appear to have been hitherto unrecorded, with the exception of a few specimens whose age or condition is such as to render it unadvisable to describe them as new to science. Two or three were noticed, but not described, by White, so long ago as 1847, in the 'List of Crustacea in the Collection of the British Museum.' For diagnoses of the new genera briefly referred to below, and characters of the families, I must refer to my paper on "The Classification of the Maioid Crustacea," published in the Journal of the Linnean Society, Zoology, vol. xiv. p.634, for the present year.
