and the inferior median anterior spines of the carpus arc well developed ; 

 of the opines of the Micros, the superior apical and the external row of the 

 inferior hiserial ones are developed; only one or t\\o of the distal ones of 

 the inner row are present. In one specimen the lingers arc much elongated. 

 There is a dark ring around the lingers near the tip. The carapace is 

 flattened above, densely and coarsely punctate, lateral spines small, acute ; 

 areola as wide as in the typical C. I'nxlinix, and of a similar form. A closely 

 similar form comes from Lizard Creek, Fort Dodge, Iowa (M. C. Z., No. 3504). 



In small specimens, 52 mm. long, males of the second form and females, 

 from Southern Indiana (M. C. Z., No. of>~>3), the lateral spine of the carapace, 

 the anterior spine of the post-orbital ridge, and the spine of the carpus and 

 meros, are acute and well formed, though small. The rostrum is excavated, 

 and thickened on the margins, as in the typical C. rn-^/fux. 



A type, male form II., of C. Wiycoiiv'iien-si-s Bundy, from Racine, Wis., re- 

 ceived from Dr. Bundy (M. C. Z., No. 3448), agrees in most particulars with 

 C. 2)ht('idtis Ilagen. The rostrum is shorter, and the internal part of the 

 first abdominal appendages is swollen near the tip, as in Hagen's C. /v.v//r//.v. 

 The anterior process of the epistoma is not truncate or emarginate. The 

 interior median and inferior median carpal spines are well developed. 



In the same jar with C. vlrili* from the Osage River (M. C. Z., No. 169) 

 I find many small specimens, males of the second form and females, which 

 agree very closely with the types of C. ji/itrt'i/nx from Lebanon, Tenn., and 

 from Texas. With these goes a single first-form male from the same local- 

 ity (Osage River), determined by Ilagen as C. jiifnti/ix (M. C. Z., No. 271 ). 

 The largest of these specimens (a female) is 71 mm. long. The rostrum 

 and antennal scale are as in C. placiifu*, the fingers of moderate length, the 

 internal median carpal spine well developed, the inferior median carpal spine 

 small and acute (in the first-form male obsolescent), the areola narrow. The 

 first abdominal appendages of the first form of the male have a prominent 

 angle on the anterior border, the inner ramus is straight, dilated at the tip, 

 the outer ramus is a little recurved ; in the second form of the male the inner 

 ramus is straight, the outer slightly recurved at the tip. The inner side of 

 the base of the external finger is bearded in the female and second-form male, 

 naked in the first-form male. Differs from C. Putnam! in having a narrower, 

 more excavated rostrum, narrower areola, and shorter male appendages. 



In the collections of the Peabody Academy of Science, the Boston Soci- 

 ety of Natural History, and Bowdoin College, there are many young speci-
