Notes

Title from caption.

"December 4 , 1951."

"The species ... is found in association with the wood-boring isopod Limnoria sp. ... [which] has often been collected without the asellote ... the fact that the asellote has not been collected outside of an association with Limnoria is suggestive that ... Caecijaera is perhaps commensal with the wood-borer."
