THE Crustacea coUeoted by Dr. R. Coppinger on the north--western, northern, and north-eastern coasts of Australia are very numerous; and are interesting not only on account of the large number of new or rare species obtained, but also on account of the careful manner in vfhich in nearly every instance the nature of the sea-bottom and depth of water &c. was recorded. Until the publication of Mr. W. A. Haswell's comprehensive work on the Podophthalmious and Edriophthalmious Crustacea of Aus­ tralia *, but few systematists had dealt specially with this depart­ ment of the fauna of this district. To the Australian species enumerated by Milne-Edwards in his great workt, numerous additions were, however, made by Prof. J. D. Dana in the Eeport on the Crustacea collected by the United States Exploring Expedition under Commodore Wilkes J, these being, with few exceptions, from the coast of New South Wales. In 1856 Dr. J. E. Kinahan § published an account of a small collection of marine Decapoda collected by himself at Port Phillip, Yictoria; and in 1865 Dr. Hess || gave a systematic account of the then known species of Decapoda of Eastern Australia, based upon the work of previous authors and a collection from Sydney in the Museum of Gottingen. In the same year appeared the Eeport by Prof. Camil Heller on the Crustacea collected by the Austrian frigate ' Novara'H, wherein twenty-four species are enumerated, also from Sydney. Eeference may also here be made to an account of the Astaoidse of Aus- traHa ("Ueberblick der neuhoUandisohen Elusskrebse") by Dr.
