bciii-c lontrcr tliaii tlie doi-sal. The cirri are compressed distally. The terminal chiw is 

 short, cur'\-etl and very sliarp; the opposing spine is small, but sharp and conspicuous. 



The radiuls are nearly or quite concealed by the centrodorsal. The IBr, are oblong, 

 about four times as wide "as long, the lateral edges straight, parallel and a trifle everted. 

 The IBro are low, twice as broad as long, pentagonal witli the lateral margins about half 

 as long as those of the IBr,. The distal angle is a riglit angle. 



Tlie 10 arms are about 40 mm. long. The fu-st brachial is wedge shaped, twice as 

 long externally as mternally, just in contact internally with its fellow of the adjacent 

 arm. The firet syzygies are between brachials 3+4,9 + 10,14 + 15, and then at mtervals 

 of three muscular articulations. 



P, is 5 to 7 mm. long. It is rather stiff and tapermg, much stouter than the 

 succeeding pinnules, and has 10 to 12 segments, of which the second is longer than 

 broad, the following ones twice and distally three tunes as long as broad. The third 

 and following segments have the distal edge on the outer side rather prominent. Po is 

 3.5 mm. long, with 7 segments, slightly more elongate than those of P,, with rather more 

 prominent ends. P3 is sUghtly shorter than Po, somewhat more slender, less stiffened 

 and with a gonad.

Diagnostic features. — There are 15 to 17 cutus segments of which the longest are 

 about 4 times as long as the median diameter and the distal decrease in length so that 

 the antepenultimate is little, if at all, longer than broad; the cirrus segments have a 

 straight dorsal and ventral profile, and their ends are not enlarged. 



Description. — Centrodorsal low hemispherical, the bare dorsal pole 1.5 mm. in 

 diameter and very slightly convex with an obscure broad median tubercle surrounded 

 by obsolete cirrus sockets. 



Cirri about XXX, 15-17 (usuallj- 17), slender and delicate, the longest about 18 

 mm. long; first segment very short, second from half again to twice as long as the median 

 diameter, third from two and a half to three times as long as the median diameter, 

 fourth and following about four times as long as the median diameter; segments after 

 the eighth slowly become shorter so that the antepenultimate is little, if at all, longer 

 than broad; penultimate segment small, wedge-shaped, about half the size of the 

 antepenultimate; opposing spine small and subterniinal; longer earlier segments 

 moderately constricted centrally, with expanded and shghtly overlappuig ends; shorter 

 terminal segments with straighter dorsal and ventral profiles, so that in lateral view the 

 cirri appear to broaden just at the tip; there may be a slightly marked transition seg- 

 ment at about the eighth. 



Distal borders of the radials even with the rim of the centrodorsal.
