tin- anal opeivle rather prominent and perfectly smooth. Caudal mini much 

 shorter than the anal segment and conspicuously constricted at the base, each 



, ided dorsally. near tin- end. with a remarkably large bulbous prominence tipped 

 with a delicate seta, extremity of the ramus somewhat dilated and transversely 

 truncated. carryini: at the outer somewhat projecting corner 2 short juxtaposed 

 bristles and at the inner another similar bristle, the 2 median setae rather 

 slender, the inner one exceeding half the length of the body. Kye wholly 

 absent. Anterior antenna; of rather feeble structure, about half the length of the 

 and rim- division, and clothed with comparatively short seta?, joints of the prox- 

 imal part successively diminishing in length, the 1st scarcely thicker than the 

 oth'T-. and densely ciliated along the anterior edge, terminal part exceeding half 

 the length of the proximal, and having the 2nd joint the longest. Posterior 

 antenna- with the distal joint narrow linear in form, outer ramus replaced by a 

 -mail s.-ta Mandibular palp comparatively small, basal part only slightly dilated, 

 and carrying inside a single tbickish seta, outer ramus smaller than inner and 

 imperfectly defined at the base, with only 2 apical setse. Posterior maxillipeds 

 rather slender, with the propodos narrow oblong in form, dactylus much elon- 

 L'at'-d. 1st pair of legs with the basal part conspicuously constricted in the 

 middle and raining at the end on each side a remarkably slender curved seta: 

 outer ramus with the middle joint much longer than the others, last joint armed 

 at the end with 4 somewhat geniculate setae gradually increasing in length 

 inwards; inner ramus with the proximal joint longer than the outer ramus and 

 very narrow, carrying inside, at some distance from the end, the usual seta; 

 distal joint scarcely exceeding ' , of the length of the proximal one, and provided 

 inside, at about the middle, with a short seta, tip armed with a slender claw- 

 like spine and a still longer seta accompanied inside by a small bristle. The 

 !inu pairs of legs with the outer ramus long and slender, 1st joint small 

 and without any seta inside, terminal joint exceeding in length the other 2 com- 

 bined, and bavin" inside in the 2nd pair 2 seta-, in the 2 succeeding pairs only
