240 ALLAN HANCOCK PACIFIC EXPEDITIONS VOL. 18 



Third epimeron: posterior edge nearly straight, lower corner rounded, 

 lateral face bearing an oblique but ragged row of setae. 



Male. — Sexual dimorphism typical. Telsonic apices more acute and 

 both spines of each are short. 



Remarks. — The specimens at hand are quite close to P. calcaratus, 

 the only clear difference being the lack of the peculiar process on article 

 5 of peraeopod 5, which, in northern specimens, should be examined in 

 more detail. It is probably the result of an accident to the figured 

 specimen. 



Material examined. — 18 specimens at 8 stations. 



Distribution. — Japan Sea, 75 m. Southern California on the east 

 slope of San Pedro Basin and the west slope of Santa Monica Basin, 

 177 to 380 fms. Galapagos Islands, 25 to 40 fms.
