326 ON SOME NEW GENEEA AND SPECIES OF AMPHIPODA, 



flagelluni as long as the two last segments of the peduncle. 

 Mandibles with a broad foliaceous palp. Maxillipedes with a 

 strong dactylos and with small, spine-fringed, squamiform plates 

 on both basos and ischium. Gnathopoda large ; anterior pair 

 with the carpus three-fourths of the length of the propodos ; the 

 propodos ovoid, swollen ; the palm not defined ; the dactylos half 

 as long as the propodos ; posterior pair larger than the anterior, 

 carpus small, subtriangular ; propodos ovate, palm defined by a 

 prominent angle ; dactylos rather more than half as long as the 

 propodos. First two pairs of pereiopoda subequal, sub-foliaceous, 

 the basos about thrice as long as broad, the meros ovate, hairy ; 

 the carpus broad, with a slight angular projection on its posterior 

 border to which are attached a number of long hairs ; propodos 

 nearly equal in length to the carpus, narrow ; dactylos small. 

 Third pair with its coxa extending forward nearly to the anterior 

 boundary of the fourth segment ; basos broader at its distal than 

 at its proximal end ; meros produced posteriorly, broader than 

 long, armed behind with five large, triangular teeth ; carpus as 

 long as the meros, but narrower, armed behind with four triangular 

 teeth ; propodos rather longer than the carpus, about half as 

 broad ; dactylos almost straight, acute ; all the segments except 

 the first and last fringed with long hairs. Fourth pair longer 

 than the third, hairy ; basos broadly ovate ; meros very large, 

 twice as broad as long, with seven teeth on its posterior border 

 carpus as long as the meros, not quite so broad, narrowing distally 

 propodos long, narrow. Fifth pair much smaller than the others 

 basos expanded posteriorly, the posterior border finely serrated 

 meros and carpus subequal, not expanded ; propodos equal in 

 length to the carpus, but narrower ; dactylos straight, acute. 

 Rami of posterior pleopoda lanceolate, serrated on the edges. 

 Halves of telson ovate, armed with a few hairs on the outer side 

 and a terminal spine. Length 2/5ths in.
