While walking ga lac beach ut Lake
Chautauqua one day | observed q cray
fish lying just at the edge Of the water
On picking it up found that it had
molted but a short time previously, and
that its new shell was still quite soft
AS lifted the animal I was surprised
to see five large leeches, the smallest of
which in its semicontracted position ex-
tended nearly three inches, hanging
from the body, and upon closer inyes-
LEGATION observed that all five were at
tached to a single portion-the left
chela. The part which had been at
tackled by the leeches was the area of Az
tachment of the adductor muscle, and
if the work had not been interrupted by
my examination it would have resulted
in the complete Gripping of the pinch
ing apparatus of that side. Other and
seemingly less protected portions of the
body were uninjured
1t would be interesting to ascertain
whether the point of attack in this case
was accidental or determined by intelli-
gence, but the appearance was that the
leeches, approaching that their prey
