The North

As noted below the two North American species described in Syndipnus by workers appear to belong in other genrra. In Europe the gunus is represented by nearly a score of species and has been reviewed in recent years by two writers (1, 2). North American collections contain very few representatives of the genus; after combining the material in the National Collection with that from the United States National Museum, the latter kindly loaned to me by Mr. R. A. Cushman, only thirty-seven specimens are available for study.

This paper presents redescriptions of amphipods in the genus Metopa (Stenothoidae) in the type-collections of the United States National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution. Typeand paratype-material is used for Metopa spinicoxa and M. stelleri. The material used for M. dawsoni is from a station very close to the type locality, and identified by Barnard, who is the author of the species. We have used material from the Albatross expedition in 1906, identified by Shoemaker, for M. cristata and M. majuscula, both originally described by Gurjanova. All species are redescribed using line drawings, and comparisons with the original texts and figures.Key words:
