Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
In a paper on the Lias of Ilminster, by my friend Mr. Charles Moore, F.G.S., communicated to the Somerset Natural History Society, and published in their Proceedings (1865–6, vol. xiii. p. 72), I gave a list of the Crustacea submitted to me for examination by Mr. Moore, among which was a species belonging to the genus Penæus, referred by me to P. latipes, Oppel, from the Upper and Middle Lias of Ilminster.
