66 AUSTRALIAN MALACOSTEACA. 



Carapace and legs tomentose ; three simple nearly conical 

 teeth terminating in a harder or scaly point, on each side of the 

 test, behind the post-ocular tooth. Notch in the middle of the 

 front angular, the two adjacent lobes perfectly rounded with the 

 border granulated. Right chelipede the larger ; fingers blackish, 

 those of the larger chelipede striated. [Latr.] 



Australia and the East Indies (Mus. Paris). 



Milne-Edwards describes this species as having the carapace 

 little or not at all granular. I cannot identify it with any of the 

 species known to me.

Body and chelipedes tomentose above ; legs hirsute. Carapace 

 broad, smooth behind, areolate in front and ornamented with 

 about twenty small subspiniform red tubercles, three of them 

 being approximated in the middle line. Antero-lateral margin 

 with five teeth, the first (or angle of the orbit) inconspicuous, 

 the second inferior, on the sub-hepatic region ; the third distant 

 from the angle of the orbit ; the three posterior rather con- 

 spicuous. Eront rather narrow, the margin denticulate, scarcely 

 emarginate in the middle. Orbit with the upper margin three 

 to four-toothed ; the lower six-toothed. Chelipedes robust, the 

 carpus and the hand sparsely granulated above and externally, 

 the granules prominent ; the larger hand smooth below. [?.]

The frontal lobes in this species vary very much in their 

 degree of prominence.

Carapace little convex, without spines on the antero-lateral 

 borders ; the regions more distinct than in the following species, 

 scarcely hairy above, but ornamented all round with a border of 

 long silky hairs. Legs ornamented with long hairs, but on their
