pression. 



Second segment of palp of outer maxilliped very small, shorter and 

 narrower than first segment, and having the narrow terminal seg- 

 ment attached at about its middle. 



As in subquadrata the palm increases in width to the distal end, 

 the fingers are longer and inclined downward a little, the lower 

 margin of the propodus being more markedly sinuous than in suh- 

 quadrata; fingers not gaping, hairy along inner surface, a prehensile 

 tooth at middle of dactyl and a smaller one at base of propodal 

 finger. 



Legs subcylindrical, naked, relative lengths 2. 3. 1. 4, the second 

 leg on right side one-third longer than on left; first leg stouter 

 than the others ; propodites slightly curved, but, while having nearly 

 parallel margins, they are a trifle stouter at distal end ; an exception 

 is that of second right leg which tapers to distal end; dactyli short, 

 slender-conical, and little curved up to the hooked, horny tip, except 

 the second right one, which is quite straight up to the tip and is also 

 the longest.
