The first Bermuda specimen known was a small one, taken by the 

 Yale party, in 1898. A much larger specimen (No. 640) was taken 

 in a seine at Nonesuch I., Sept. 3, 1905, by the party from the Field 

 Mus. Nat. History, It is a female carrying eggs. Its carapace is 

 34mm \on^^ less rostrum 27.5""" ; 29°^'" broad, less spines 23'""' ; 

 length of rostral horns 6,5™™ ; length of cheloe, 10.5; height, 3.5™™. 

 The horns are rather long and sharp, nearly parallel, wnth a large 

 U-shaped space between them. There is a row of seven stout spini-

 the central and two lateral are the larger. It is covered with algae, 

 beneath which it is provided with a coating of stiff, rough hairs,
