138 " KNDEAVODR " SCIENTIFIC RESULTS. 



Male, extreme length of carapace 74.3, extreme width 

 115 mm.; female, extreme length of carapace 39, extreme 

 width 53.7 mm. The specimens show a range in length 

 from not quite two-thirds the extreme width in the old to 

 nearly three-fourths the extreme width in the half grown. 



The marginal teeth in the old male resemble those fignred 

 by de Haan 21 . 



In the small female, the lateral teeth of the wings of the 

 carapace are shallow and obtuse angled ; the posterior margin 

 of the last of these teeth is shorter than the corresponding 

 margin of the adjoining tooth of the posterior border of 

 the carapace. The reverse is true in the old male. These 

 characters are varietal and not sexual.
