BELLIA ARENARIA.

To the Editors of the Annals of Natural History.

8 Mulgrave Place, Plymouth, May 17, 1854. G E N T L E M E N , - - I n the April Number of this Journal for 1851,,

p. 318, there is figured and described by me an Amphipod Crus- tacean under the name of J~ellia arenaria.

Finding that the same generic name has been applied to one of the zlnomoura, it would be better perhaps, for the convenience of science, that the same name should not be repeated in one class of animals.

I t is therefore proposed to call this animal lbr the future "Sulcator arenarius," or " the Sand-ploughing Screw," the name being derived from the furrow which it makes in the wet sand when crawling ; the only one of the tribe, as far as I am aware, that so progresses.

I am, Sirs, very obediently yours, C. SeE~c~ Ba~'E.

MR. BOVgERBANK AND PROF. S E D G W I C K .

To the Editors of the Annals of Natural History.

Queen's College, Belfast, 22nd May, t85:t.

G~;NTLEMEN,--Mr. Bowerbank's letter, in your last Number, in reply to Professor Sedgwick's remarks on a statement printed by M. Milne-Edwards in the Palveontographieal Society's volume for 1852, may he briefly answered (and I hope to his satlsihction) by my statement that I have seen the list he enclosed of the fossils he asked for, and it onl~t contained the names of the nezo British Oolitic corals mentioned iu my paper on Mesozoic Radiata in a former volume of the ' Annals,' and no Palceozoic corals. Prof. Sedgwick's statemeuts are therefore strictly correct, and Mr. Bowerbank's surmises that he had written for both kinds, as well as any defence of Prof. Milne- Edwards founded thereon, are clearly negatived. The list is still at Cambridge.

I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen, Your most obliged and obedient serrant,

FRED~RIC~ M'CoYo
