DISCOVERY REPORTS 



Abdomen pyriform, reaching to middle of second coxa ; not elevated. 



Chelophore. Scape equal to cephalic segment, setose (Fig. 33 a). Fingers of chela 

 shorter than palm, abruptly bent distally, armed with twelve and fifteen spinules 

 respectively (Fig. 32 c). 



Palp as represented in Fig. 25 a ; two terminal segments very short, together less than 

 one-third of second (this is true of all four specimens, see Table V). 



Oviger. Terminal claw rather shorter than tenth segment, armed with five spinules. 



Fig. 33. Nymphon bonvieii, n.sp. Holotype: a. Dorsal view of body 

 with chelophores : x 12 — proboscis foreshortened, b. Third leg. 



Total number of denticulate spines 15-18. Segments 4-6 in the proportions 

 17 :2-5 : I (Fig. zy b). 



Third leg short and setose (Fig. 33 b); setae, as a rule, longer than the diam.eter of 

 the segment to which they are attached. Second coxa equal to the sum of the other two. 

 Femur subequal to second tibia, with 3-4 high wide gland tubercles on mid-ventral 

 surface. First tibia the longest segment (see measurements). Tarsus approximately two- 

 thirds of propodus ; claw nearly half as long as the latter ; auxiliaries well developed 

 one-fourth of claw.
