The first and second uropods are strongly spined. The telson is 

 but little longer than broad, apically acute. 



Locality. Dredged between Bird Island and mainland, in 10-16 

 fathoms, and in lat. 33 9' 30" S., long. 28 3' 00" E. ; 47 fathoms.

Between this and the preceding species the most obvious dis- 

 tinctions are in the shape of the head, here much less produced, and 

 in the eyes, here obliquely oblong instead of lageniform. 



Locality. The two species (or perhaps varieties) occurred in the 

 same dredgings. E. atlanticus appears to be more brilliantly 

 coloured, or to be more retentive of its colouring than E. afer.

The South African specimen, though smaller than that obtained 

 by the Challenger, is in more perfect condition. Both are females. 



The eyes are small, but distinct. In the earlier specimen they 

 had disappeared. The second antennae have the fourth and fifth 

 joints of the peduncle long, subequal, the flagellum 11-jointed, not 

 so long as the last joint of the peduncle. In the first and second 

 gnathopods the fifth joint is less elongate than in the Challenger
