Excerpt from An Account of the Crustacea of Norway, With Short Descriptions and Figures of All the Species, Vol. 5: Copepoda Harpacticoida; Parts 1 and 2, Misophriidæ, Longipediidæ, Cerviniidæ, Ectinosomidæ (Part) The cephalosome is generally coalesced with the lst segment of the meta some, though in some few forms a well-marked demarcation between them may be found to exist. The lateral parts of this section are more or less expanded, being so deep in some forms, e. G. The genus Longipcdia, that they wholly include between them the oral appendages. It projects in front in a more or less distinct, generally lamellar rostrum, which in most cases is movably connected with the cephalic shield. The 3 succeeding segments of the metasome are always well defined, and are provided with more or less distinct epimeral plates. The last segment of the metasome, as stated above, has always a very movable articulation with the preceding segment, whereas it is firmly connected with the lst segment of the urosome. Its epimeral plates are generally obsolete, or at any rate much smaller than on the preceding segments. The urosome is composed of 5 segments. The first 2 of which, however, in the female are more or less completely coalesced, though in some forms a distinct suture between them is seen dorsally. In the male these 2 segments are always distinctly separated, and the lst of them pro jects at the end, on each side of the ventral face, to a small setiferous process. The caudal rami are in most cases short, and firmly connected with the last caudal segment. Of the apical setae, as a rule, only the 2 middle ones are well developed, the others being more or loss rudimentary. A single eye is generally present, though in some forms, especially in those from deep water, no trace of such an organ is to be found.

Excerpt from An Account of the Crustacea of Norway, Vol. 8: With Short Descriptions and Figures of All the Species As to the two anomalous groups treated of in the present Volume, no record whatever has as yet been given on the Norwegian forms belonging to them. I will not omit, also on this occasion, to tender my most sincere thanks to the Direction of the Bergen Museum for the interest, it still shows for the progress of my work.

Excerpt from An Account of the Crustacea of Norway, Vol. 1: With Short Descriptions and Figures of All the Species In presenting to the scientific world the 1 st Volume of the great work on Norwegian Crustacea, which I have entered upon, I wish to make the following observations about the plan of the work in general, and especially that of the present Volume. The author, who during a long series of years has been engaged by the government to make investigations about the sea-fisheries of Norway, and for this purpose has made numerous journeys of research along the whole Norwegian coast, from the Christianiafjord to Vadso, has thereby had an unusually convenient opportunity for at the same time studying the rich marine invertebrate fauna occurring along that extensive coast, and has especially made himself familiar with the several groups of Crustacea, which had long before been his special study. A very large amount of zoological material has thus from time to time been brought together from many different localities, and among this material have been found numerous interesting forms new to science. Most of the new Crustacea have been briefly characterised by the author in several papers, chiefly published in the Transactions of the Scientific Society of Christiania, and a few groups, for instance the Mysidtr, have also been more fully treated of in separate treatises. It has, however, appeared to the author very desirable, that a full account of the rich carcinological fauna of Norway should be given, like that of the Briti.sh Crustacea long ago published by several distinguished carcilogists, both because such faunistic works have on tlie whole shown themselves to be extremely useful, and because the fauna of Norway, as is well known, belongs to two distinct zoological regions, the boreal and arctic, and thus exhibits characteristic differences from that of the British Isles. Indeed, the author has long felt it as a veritable duty, by entering Upon a such work, to utilise his long experience for the benefit of future carcinologists. But the great expenses connected with the publication of such an extensive work in the usual manner, as publication from the University, have hitherto prevented him from realizing his plan, and it is only.
