We obtained, at the same time, large pieces of Labularia digitata, Sertularia abietina, upon which nothing of the animal kind was to be seen, but attached to which was frequently found Flustra dentata; also Pagurus Bernhardus, Fusus antiquus, Rostellaria pes pelecani, Cardium echinatum, Ascidia Prunum, Balanus sulcatus, Echinus saxatilis, and Spatangus flavescens.
Hippa adactyla F. is very frequent here, and keeps itself concealed under the sands on the sea-shore. It was from these that Fabricius, who has given a wrong description of their legs, formed his species Hippa; Latreille mentions them by the name of Remipes testudinarius. Six kinds of Pagurus.
But except what is common to all Zoeae, and what may easily be explained as being transferred back from a later into this stage, the Zoeae of the Crabs, for example, agree with those of Pagurus and Palaemon in no single peculiarity of structure which leads us to suppose a common inheritance.

The objects most frequently met with, were an ugly little Turbo, the empty shell of which was tenanted by a black Pagurus and a Balanus. A large Cyanea differs from the European C. ciliata, in the form of the stomach.
Protected by the abdomen of the Crab, or by the shell inhabited by the Pagurus, the parasite also no longer required the calcareous test, in which, no doubt, the first Cirripedes settling upon these Decapods rejoiced.
The supposition that certain Cirripedes might once upon a time have selected the soft ventral surface of a Crab, Porcellana or Pagurus, for its dwelling-place, has certainly nothing improbable about it.
"But I've got my lacemaker for Audrey." "'The carapace of a pagurus, as Fergus translated it." Adding, "I don't know the species." "I can find out when father has time to let us look at the big natural history book in the shop," said Felix. "We must not look at it unless he turns it over, so Pearl and I are saving up to buy it." "For instance!" said his father, laughing.
"Oh, I could not help getting something for them all," pleaded the boy, "and pagurus was not dear. At least he is, in the other way." "Take care, Fely- he won't stand caresses. I should think he was the first crab ever so embraced." "I wonder you got entrance so early in the day," said Miss Mohun.
