MACRTKA. SCHMITT. 351 



The specimen is somewhat longer than de Man's two 

 largest males. As in that species, it has epipodites only 

 on the third of the thoracic legs. Though the rostral 

 toothing is the same, and the third maxillipeds and 

 antennules are relatively the same length the fifth legs 

 are comparatively a little longer the shape and direction 

 of the hooked and twisted tips of the lateral horns of 

 the petasma are so unlike T. salaco that this male cannot 

 be identified with that species. 



Measurements. As stated above, the single male 

 specimen is about 54 mm. long. The smallest of the eight 

 females is possibly 67 mm. long and the largest about 

 84 mm. Three specimens better than average are 79, 80 

 and 81 mm. long respectively. 



Remarks. -- "Challenger" specimens from Japan 

 (Yokohama) identified as Penwus anchoraUs by Bate 

 and determined by Alcock as T. curvirostris, are referred 

 to under the last-named species further on.
