Extract

Material from Loch Fyne referable to Monoculodes gibbosus Chevreux (Oedicerotidae) has been discovered in the Reference Collection at Millport originally labelled by David Robertson as M. stimpsoni Bate. This is the first British record of this little known species. A detailed redescription is provided and comparison made with French material (including the holotype). A revised key to the British species is presented.
