My dear Buckland

You will find a figure (not a good one) of Artemisus in Rackett's paper in Lim Trans. under the name of [Cancer?] Sehiris I think. Rackett gives it's history from the Lymington Salt-pans but if I recollect right though he observed that the Brine-worms live in such a salt medium as no other animal endures he says nothing of their mode of reproducing the species. I can't find the "flins"

In haste

Ever yours
W.J. Broderip
