Description of female. The female specimen represented 

 by the drawing- (PI. XIX. fig. 5) is somewhat like Hermannella 

 rostrata, Canu, in general appearance, bat is smaller. The 

 length of the specimen is "68 mm. (Jy of an incii). 



The antennules (PL XV. fig. 7) are short and composed 

 of seven joints ; the third and last joints are small, the others 

 are larger, but they vary somewhat in length, as shown 

 approximately by the formula : 



Length of the joints J4_. 34 . 8 . 19 . 19 . 14 . 8_

The antennas are short, moderately stout and four-jointed, 

 but the penultimate joint is very small (PL XIII. fig. 15). 

 The terminal, curved, claw-like setae exhibit a pseudo- 

 articulation near the middle, as in some other species of the 

 Lichomolgidae. 



The mandibles consist each of a broad falciform plate, 

 which tapers gradually to the acuminate apex (PL XV. 



fig- 8). 



The maxillaa are subcylindrical, simple in structure, and 



bear each one small marginal and one apical seta (PL XV. 

 fig. 8, m.#.). 



The first maxillipeds, which possess a stout basal part, 

 terminate in a slender curved appendage which is provided 

 with a unilateral row of small spinules, while a moderately
