Extract

During 1934–5 I collected in Plymouth Sound and neighbouring waters seven species of the genus Corophium of which two were undescribed. I also collected one other species, and had sent to me two other species (one new) from other localities in South England. A list of these ten species, with the single other species known from Britain, is given in Appendix II, and their British distribution summarized.

In the course of identifying them I examined 23 of the 32 species of Corophium, and saw all the literature to which I could find references.
