Extract

By the permission of Professor A. C. Ramsay, LL.D., F.R.S., Director-General of the Geological Survey of Great Britain and Ireland, and Professor Geikie, LL.D., F.R.S., Director of the Geological Survey of Scotland, I have been permitted to describe several new Crustaceans which have come under my notice in my capacity of Acting Palæontologist to the Scotch Survey. They are from the cement-stone group of the Calciferous Sandstone series of the Scottish border, and, with a very few exceptions, were got from one locality on the river Esk, about four miles south of Langholm, in Dumfriesshire, and were almost all collected by A. Macconochie, Fossil Collector to the Geological Survey of Scotland. They belong to two orders, viz., Phyllopoda and Decapoda.
