PLATE XII, FIGURES 3 :'.'-. 



This species is very y.-malik- in colors, Imt tin- tints an- cvidmtlv 

 decidedly protective. The inottlings of yellow, olive, and brown 

 closely resemble the colors of the stained and weather-beaten rocks 

 and dead algje aiiion^ which it usually lives. 



In life, the ground-color of the rarapaee is most fre<|iientlv dull 

 olive-green, yellowish, or yellowish-brown, sometimes dull grav, mon- 

 or less covered by iri'egular inottlings of darker brown, reddish, or 

 dark olive, usually darkest .ulteriorly, where the transverse ridges 

 are often edged with reddish or dark In-own, making them more con- 

 spicuous ; large chel.-e are often plain light brown or reddish brown, 

 usually with pale tips, but in some cases they are blotched with 

 darker brown, or tinged with bright red on some parts, especially at 

 the joints. The pereiopods are usually banded with darker and 

 lighter brown.
