Of the Washington (District of Columbia) High Schools. The three species of bopyridian crustaceans herein described were collected by the author during the summer of 1915 while making a study of the decapod crustaceans of the region about Beaufort, North Carohna, for the United States Bureau of Fisheries. For the facilities for obtainmg, preser\ang, and studying the animals I have to thank the Director of the Beaufort Fisheries Biological Station, Mr. S. F. Hildebrand, and the Commissioner of Fisheries, Dr. Hugh M. Smith. It is with the permission of the latter that the paper is pubhshed. PHRYXUS SUBCAUDALIS, new species. Plate 98, figs. 1 to 6.
