 1889; station 2989, Albatross; 1 young male, 1 young female (17380). 



Remarks. — This is not a typical Pugettla. The supraocular eave 

 is less expanded over the eye, and the narrow postocular spine is 

 isolated both from the eave and from the hepatic prominences. The 

 eye is larger than is usual in the Acanthonychinae. In the shape of 

 the carapace behind the rostrum the species approaches Antilihinia.^^ 



Genus MIMULUS Stimpson 



Mimulus STiMPSO>f, Ann. Lye. Nat. Hist. New York, vol. 7, 1860, p. 199 

 [71]; type, M. foliatus Stimpson. 



Carapace flattened,^ smooth or nearly so, subpentagonal; lateral 

 portions laminate, much produced, winglike, antero-lateral margin 

 cut by a narrow fissure into two closely approximate lobes. Rostrum 

 short, bifid, horizontal. Basal antennal article enlarged at base and 

 narrowing distally. Orbits incomplete below, but furnished above 

 with a preocular and postocular spine. First pair of ambulatory 

 legs much exceeding the others. 



There is perhaps only one species, and that from the west coast of 

 North America.
