cambala. Ocelli numerous and distinct. No vertigial setigerous 

 foveolae. Antennae long, strongly clavate. Mandibles with six 

 (or seven) pectinate lamellae. Segments deeply constricted as in 

 Nannolene. Segments without striae or keels above, being essentially 

 smooth; strongly striate beneath. Among other such genera of this 

 group standing apart in having the repugnatorial pores begin on the 

 fifth segment. First legs of male, excepting for smaller size, normal, 

 six-jointed; with claws. In the anterior male gonopods a single 

 median plate; a telopodite distinctly separated from the coxal divi- 

 sion. 



Genotype. — N. fijiana, sp. nov. 



451. Nesocambala fijiana, sp. nov. 



Type.— M. C. Z. 4,827. Par./vtypes.— M. C. Z. 4,828. Fijis: 

 Nadarivatu (W. M. Mann). 



The anterior gonopods flattened anterocaudally; near middle on 

 ectal side a distally directed, finger-like process curved mesad at its 

 distal end, separated by a distinct suture; adjacent to it on the mesal 

 side and separated off from the basal part by an oblique suture is a 

 broader flattened piece which bends back caudad distally showing a 

 furrow mesad of its ectal angle and a longer pointed process or finger 

 from its mesodistal corner. Anterior ventral plate in a single piece 

 which is extended distad as a slender, distally rounded process. The 

 posterior gonopods much shorter than the anterior, the latter curving 

 back over them; distally rounded; flagellum terminal. 



The general color of the body black with the venter and lower part 

 of sides fulvous, the light color rising higher on the metazonites than 

 on the prozonites; frequently two longitudinal dorsal series of fulvous 

 to somewhat ferruginous spots, the outline of the spots irregular, two 

 on each metazonite with often a few much smaller light dots below 

 each one. The coUum lighter from numerous light areas separated 

 by a network of dark as are also several succeeding tergites. Anal 

 segment fulvous, the scutum darker over its caudal portion. Head 

 fulvous below and on the sides, areolated over vertex similarly to 

 collum and the clypeal region mottled. Antennae black excepting 

 the seventh article. Legs fulvous. 



Each eye-patch subrhomboidal. Ocelli mostly in four or five series; 

 c. g., 4, 4, 4, 4 to 4, 4, 4, 4, 3. A lightly impressed sulcus across vertex 

 of head. Antennae with fifth and sixth articles thickest, the fifth 

 strongly clavate, the sixth more nearly cylindrical.
