"An adult male labelled as from Simon's Bay, Cape of

1871. Calappa moniziana, de Brito Capello, Torn. Sci. Lisboa, vol. iii., 



pp. 129, 133, pi. 2, figs. 1, 16. 



Under this name de Brito Capello gives the locality, " Patria : 

 cabo de Boa Esperanza ? " for an individual in a box of insects, 

 arachnids and crustaceans presented to the [Lisbon] Museum 

 by Dr. Moniz. On p. 133 he draws up a synoptic table of 

 eight species of Calappa, three of these having in common the 

 characters, " Clypeiform prolongations very salient. Teeth 

 developed at the hind margin of the carapace. At the middle 

 of the same margin a great space without teeth." The three 

 are distinguished one from another as follows : C. moniziana 

 having on the lower margin of the hand a tubercle only, 

 C. marmorata a large tooth, and C. </tfl//is neither tooth nor 

 tubercle.
