A single specimen, which I refer without a doubt to this species, 

 was dug up on the beach near Fort Macon, N. C. It agrees well 

 with Stimpson's description, and certainly is not L. scutellata, 

 from which it differs in the shape of the eyes, the form of the 

 front, the dactyli of the second pair of feet, etc. Stimpson's 

 type was from St. Thomas.
