154 "ENDEAVOUR" SCIENTIFIC RESULTS. 



PETALOMERA LAMELLATA (Ortmann}. 

 (Plate xlii., figs. 2-3.) 



Cryptodromia lamellata, Ortmann, in Semon, Zool. 

 Forschungsr. Austral, u. d. Malay. Arch., Jena. 

 Denkschr?, viii., 1894, p. 34, pi. ii., fig. 8. 



East-north-east of Maria Island, Tasmania, 57-75 

 fathoms; E.5151; one male. 



Length of carapace of male 10.3, width of same 13 mm. 



The carapace is coarsely granulate near the anterior 

 and antero-lateral margins. An epipod is present on the 

 cheliped, and in other respects the species conforms to the 

 definition of Petalomera. 



PETALOMERA DEPRESSA (Baker}. 



Cryptodromia depressa, Baker, Trans. Roy. Soc. South 

 Australia, xxxi., 1907, p. 180, pi. xxv., figs. 1-16. 



Fifteen miles south of St. Francis Isles, South Australia, 

 30 fathoms; E.4470; one male. 



Length of carapace of male 25.6, width of same 27.3 mm. 



The species has an epipod on the cheliped and is akin to 

 lateral-is, which Borradaile puts in Petalomera. P. depressa 

 has certain characters contrary to his definition of the 

 genus, viz., the walking legs are knobbed, not sharply 

 ridged, and the sternal grooves of the female are, according 

 to Baker, op. cit., p. 181, situated between the coxa? of the 

 chelipeds instead of between those' of the ambulatory legs 

 of the first pair. 



PETALOMERA WILSONI (Fulton and Grant}. 

 (Plate xlii., fig. 1.) 



Cryptodromia wilsoni, Fulton and Grant, Proc. Roy. Soc. 

 Victoria, n.s., xv.. 1902, p. 61, pi. ix. 



Dromia pseud ogibbosa, Parisi, Atti. Soc. Ital. Sci. Nat., 

 liv., 1915, p. 5, pi. ii., figs. 1 and 2. 



Between Port Stephens and Newcastle, New South Wales, 

 22-60 fathoms; E.279 ; one male, one ovigerous female. 



Shoalhaven Bight, New South Wales, 15-45 fathoms; 

 P.2140 ; one female. 



Thirty-three miles south-east from Green Cape, New 

 S'outh Wales, 470 fathoms; E.3149; one female.
