 beyond middle. L. (a presumably young specimen) 2-5 mm (Malm), 9 adult,

Head, rosti-um small but distinct. Side-plates very shallow. Eyes 

 wanting. Antennae 1 and 2 slender, much stronger in d. Antenna 1 the 

 shorter. Mandible, cutting edge moderately wide, a small accessory plate 

 on both mandibles, palp not very large, 3"^ Joint very short. Maxiila 1, 

 inner plate with 1 seta, outer with 6(?) spines, 2^ Joint of palp not distally 

 expanded. Maxilla 2 comparatively large. Maxillipeds, inner plates almost 

 obsolete, outer as long as their base, overtopping 1*^* Joint of palp, fringed 

 with a few spines, palp not very large. Gnathopods 1 and 2 not veiy powerful, 

 simple. Peraeopods 1 and 2 as in Pardalisca (p. 221). Peraeopods 3 — 5 long,
