Professor Bouvier in his account of the " Serie des Aristeae " 

 says, " Premier article des palpes mandibulaires plus etroit et 

 notablement plus court que le second qui est triangulaire et 

 souvent echancre." The peculiar shape of the second joint 

 with its dilated base is no doubt an interesting characteristic 

 of this group, but the preceding joint is shown to be consider- 

 ably longer, instead of notably shorter, alike in Bate's figure 

 of this palp in his Aristeus armatus and in Bouvier's own 

 figures of it in Hepomadus tener, Smith, and Plesiopenaeus 

 edwardsiaims (Johnson).
