Extract

Mr. Thomas Jesson, B.A., F.G.S., of Great Houghton House, Northampton, was lately so fortunate as to discover in the Great Oolite of that county, a new and most interesting example of an Isopodous Crustacean, which, by his kindness, I am permitted to figure and record in the Geological Magazine.

page 530 note 1 In the majority of the Isopoda the “head” segments become fused with the first segment of the thorax, and form a cephalic shield which is freely movable upon the second thoracic segment. In Serolis the first and second thoracic segments are closely united, and completely fused dorsally, though the sterna of the two remain distinct; in some species an incomplete transverse suture upon the first epimera seems to mark the line of division between the two segments dorsally; in others the epimera of the two thoracic segments are completely united, and show no traces of their original distinctness; these epimera are always largely developed, and completely inclose the cephalic shield on both sides (Frank E.
