180 ALLAN HANCOCK PACIFIC EXPEDITIONS VOL. 5 



Remarks: The species here described as a representative of the genus 

 Pseudosquilla certainly is properly accredited to this genus on the basis of 

 the character of the telson alone, irrespective of the number of teeth on 

 the raptorial dactylus. In character, the telson of our species shows some 

 resemblance to Pseudosquilla pilaensis de Man^^ from the Indo-Pacific, 

 which is the only Pseudosquilla heretofore known with more than 3 

 teeth on the raptorial dactylus, counting the terminal one. 



The body of P. veleronis is very much flattened like many of the 

 Lysiosquillas, yet, in contradistinction to them, exhibits no trace what- 

 soever of even one soft papilla on the ventral surface of the antennal 

 protopodite. At least one papilla in this position is probably to be found 

 in the adult of every species of Lysiosquilla. 



In addition to the 5 species of Lysiosquilla already examined by Kemp 

 for these papillae, I have observed their presence in ten other species of 

 Lysiosquilla.^^

L. biminiensis Bigelow L. latifrons de Haan 



L. digueti Coutiere L. mccullochae Schmitt 



L. eusebia (Risso) L. polydactyla von Martens
