C . b o r e a 1 i s Stimpson, the northern crab,may possibly be found within the city limits. This is a rather largerand heavier species than irroratus and frequents rocky local-ities, usually being found on the rocks, and not underneath. Farthernorth it is found cast on the beaches in considerable numbers. Itpossesses the nine lateral teeth, but those on the side are morepointed, and the carapace is rougher than in irroratus. 140 NEW YORK STATE MUSEUM Family pilun^inid^xe: Panopeus harrisii (Gould) Panopeus depressus Smith Panopeus sayi Smith JIud crabs Pilnmnus harrisii Gould, A.
