nd-sixth cirrus (fig. 13—15) of about the same structure: each consisting of a 

 two-jointed pedicel and two rami, each oi which is represented by a single segment only, 

 however about twice as Ion- and more than twice as broad as the other. The 1 irrus 

 of th'- second pair has the lower segment of the pedicel shorter and the upper longer, the 

 thinl cirrus lias about the same structure: in the 4"' — 6 th cirrus. however, the two segments 

 of the pedicel are of about the same length. In all the cirri a number (4 — 6; of stronger hairs 

 are planted on the pedicel at the base of the segment which represents the stronger ramus, 

 and another group of even longer and stouter hairs at the base of the more rudimentary ramus. 

 Both rami bear at their rather broad, truncated extremity a dense tuft of very thin and delicate 

 hairs which are irregularly curled, of very unequal length but altogether rather long. As a rule 

 parate group of hairs is inserted at or near the extremity of the stronger ramus, near its 

 extremity. Such a separate tuft of slender hairs is also observed <>n the inner side near the 

 extremity of the segment representing the smaller ramus. 



The cellular (plasmatic) contents with muscles and nerves have shrunk from the chitinous 



surface of the legs of the animal, due probably to the alcohol in which it was kept. The hairs 



through the chitinous covering standing with their plasmatic contents in communication 



with the contents of the leg itself. The contents are distinctly denser and darker coloured near 



the extremity where the hairs seem to take their origin. 



Caudal appendages not observed, most probably wanting.

 pair, truncated at the extremity where it bears a tuft of short hairs. Numerous very 

 short hairs scattered over its surface.
