Carlisle (1954) described Styela mammiculata, a new species of stalked ascidian from the Plymouth area, and suggested that it had been brought into British waters, probably with oysters. Its recent discovery on other parts of the south coast of England (Houghton & Millar, 1960) supports the idea that it is an introduced species which is now spreading through a favourable environment. It is well, therefore, to consider whether this may not be a species known from another part of the world. Tokioka (1955) examined one of Carlisle's specimens and suggested that it fell within the range of variation of S. clava Herdman. As many specimens of S.mammiculata are now available, a more extensive comparison has been made and is reported in this paper.

Leptochelia Vatulelensis(Crustacea: Tanaidacea), A New Species From Anchialine Caves of the South-Western PacificLeptochelia vatulelensisn. sp., discovered on the small islands of Vatulele (Fijian group) and Ouvéa (Loyalty Islands, New Caledonia), is described and illustrated. The new species is distinguished from the others of the"Leptochelia-dubiagroup" (to which it is generally similar) by the following combination of morphological characteristics: (1) the presence of three to four distal setae on the maxilliped basis; (2) merus of pereopods III and IV with only a distosternal seta; (3) endopod of the uropods formed of four (rarely three) articles; (4) males with two (sometimes three) relatively short aesthetascs on the first five articles of the antennular flagellum; (5) male cheliped with a diminished dimorphism; (6) males with a vertical comb-row of setae on the cheliped propodus. Although it inhabits inland, anchialine caves, the new species lacks morphological features that are characteristic of some cave species.
