plate^ setaceous, eudopodite long and stoutly built, somewhat 

 flattened and setaceous. Telson (fig. 85) with posterior 

 margin wider than the length, almost truncate, lateral 

 margins slightly curved inward, expanded anteriorly, with 

 raised triangular area in the centre. 



Length 8 mm. 



Colour (in alcohol) a pearly-grey, with very faint lighter- 

 coloured flecks. 



Habitat. — Knoll Bush, Hilton Road, Aug. 31st, 1916 

 (C. Akerman). 



Type. — In the Natal Museum. 



Anchicubaeis gen. nor. 



Body oblong-oval, strongly convex, with thickened lateral 

 ridges on the pleural plates, which latter are strongly curved 

 backwardly and outwardly, terminally truncate, dorsally 

 produced upwardly and outwardly. Cephalon with greatly 

 produced and flattened epistome. Antennulas absent. Telson 

 extending slightly beyond the uropoda. Remaining characters 

 as in Cubaris. 



I have thought it advisable to separate the specimens from 

 Mt. Fongosi, etc., from the genus Cubaris on account of the 

 form of the pleural plates of the mesosome and the greatly 

 produced anterior margin of the cephalon.

Body (fig. 86) oblong-oval, strongly convex, dorsal surface 

 with prominent tubercles. Cephalon (figs. 87, 88) small

 the pleural plates of the first mesosomatic segment, epistome 

 large and almost flat. Eyes small, situated doi'so-laterally. 

 Antennulse absent. Antennae (fig. 89) short and robust, 

 setaceous, 2nd and 5th joints slightly grooved on their outer
