Carapax naked, distinctly areolated ; anterior and antero-lateral areolets 

 somewhat roughened infront with small, sharp, tooth-like tubercles. An- 

 tero-lateral teeth sharp and denticulated ; the posterior one nearly obsolete. 

 Frontal lobes little projecting, but with a convex outline; margin minutely 

 crenulated, and defined by a slight furrow following it above. A small 

 tubercle on the subhepatic region beneath the second antero-lateral tooth. 

 Chelipeds granulated above ; carpus with a sharp tooth and denticulated 

 margin within, and with the granules arranged in reticulating lines; hand 

 with a double denticulated crest, and with tin' minute granules of the 

 outei surface showing a tendency to arrangement in rows ; these granules 

 become obsolete toward the base of the thumb or propodal finger. 

 Ambulatory feet armed with minute spines above, which form two rows on 

 the carpal joint.

Chlorodius dispar nov. >\>. 



Carapax transversely oval, very broad, convex, smooth, polished, sparsely 

 punctate in front, and scarcely at all areolated, the only depressions at all 

 conspicuous being those at the antero-lateral corners of the gastric region, 

 partly defining the protogastric lobes. Antero-lateral margin almost 

 entire, the posterior two of the live normal teeth only being distinguisha- 

 ble. Orbits entire, above and below. Front straight, slightly notched, 

 hut not at all prominent at the middle; margin furrowed. Chelipeds 

 very unequal, tin- right one in both specimens under observation being 

 much larger than the other: they are naked, smooth, and polished; 

 fingers a little more than half as Ion- a- the palm, scarcely gaping, and 

 but little excavated at the tips. Ambulatory feet compressed, hairj 

 above. 



Colors: Caranax, dark brown: chelipeds, dark reddish; fingers, black; 

 greater hand with one or two white .-pot- on the outer side between the 

 bases of the fingers.
