 nuisi'uni. ()n(> from Allxttro.ss station 2781. in ;^>48 fathoms, and one 

 from station :^T85 in ■i-ti» fathoms. Both stations are off the west coast 

 of Patagonia at no great distance from the type locality of J/, irijida. 



Alcock and Anderson" have referred to M. trijicla specimens from 

 the •'Arabian Sea, north of the Laccadives, 'o?>(d fathoms; Bay of Ben- 

 gal, otf the Andamans. 480 fathoms; Andaman Sea, 4i»8 fathoms.'' 

 Contrary to the character of the t3'pe and topot^^pes, these specimens 

 are descril)e(l as tomento.se. "Body and appendages tomentose. 

 Carapace when denuded transversely rugose, especially postero- 

 laterally." 



It does not seem at all improba))le that specimens from localities .so 

 widely separated and difljering so much in the amount of hair (the one 

 being naked and the other clothed) would show additional diverse 

 characters when placed side by side; however, in the absence of inter- 

 grading specimens, this character alone renders the forms specitically 

 distinct. 1 therefore propose that the form from the Indian Seas be 

 known as 2fun!cl(>psis tomenfosd.
