of small, knob-shaped projections posterior to mouth cone base, 

 similar in position to postoral adhesion pads. Female and male 

 maxilla (fig. 26/) 2-segmented, situated lateral and posterior to post- 

 oral process. Fhst segment approximately two-thu-ds the length 

 of second, proximal end with pair of subconical articulation projections, 

 segment tapered slightly to distal region. Second segment elongate, 

 broadest medially, with fine membranous flange on inner medial 

 surface, with 2 saber-shaped processes from distal surface, inner 

 more than twice the length of outer, Avith fine membrane along inner 

 margin, outer with membranes along both margins. 



Female maxilliped (fig. 2Qg) 2-segmented, situated posterior and 

 medial to maxilla base. First segm.ent strongly developed; second 

 segment short, distinct from clawlike terminal process, bearing single, 

 setule-like accessory process from inner surface, at junction of segment 

 and terminal process. Male maxilliped (fig. 26A) 2-segmented, prox- 

 imal end of first segment recurved, terminating in socket-shaped 

 articulation surface; segment with slightly roughened adhesion surface 

 on medial inner surface. Second segment appearing bifurcate distaUy, 

 one ramus of bifurcation formed by scoop-shaped terminal process; 

 segment bearing long, flexible process just proximal to apex of bifur- 

 cation. Flexible process longer than first segment, possibly repre- 

 senting elongate accessory process, based on position of origin as well 

 as absence of small, setule-like accessory process present on female. 



Female and male sternal furca (fig. 26'i) situated between and 

 posterior to maxiUiped bases, consisting of plate bearing 2 widely 

 separated, bluntly pointed tines and 2 accessory spines, at base of 

 tines. Pah- of lappet-like projections present just posterior and 

 lateral to furca.
