Extract

In a recent paper on the fæcal pellets of the Anomura, pellets were described from a series of Galatheidea, Paguridea and Thalassinidea, but at that time no Hippidea were available. Since then, through Professor J. H. Orton, I have obtained specimens of Hippa asiatica from Madras and have prepared sections of their pellets. As the latter form an interesting addition to the series of curious pellets, apparently peculiar to the Anomura, a special description of their structure seems to be justified.
