THE GENUS ERETMOCARIS 



373 



arthrobranchs on legs. Legs 3-5 lost, but leg 4 apparently with exopod. Base of leg 5 

 not so large as that of leg 4, so that the leg is probably not enlarged. 



Pleopods slender. 



This must be the same form as that described by Ortmann, but it differs in having 

 the first segment of the eyestalk only about half the length of the second, whereas 

 Ortmann describes it as about equal. E. longicaulis Bate is a very similar form, with the 

 eyestalk enormously long, and with pointed abdominal pleura; but the eyestalk is not 

 jointed, and it appears that leg 5 must be much enlarged.
