Kemarks. — This new species resembles 0. brevispinosus (G. O. 

 Sars) in the general shape of the body, although on closer examination 

 there appear to be quite a number of different details. Moreover, the 

 development of the external marginal spines on the exopodite of leg 2 

 is different; 3 of such spines occur on the 3rd segment in 0. brevispi- 

 nosus, 2 in 0. gladiator. The furcal rami, in 0. brevispinosus, are 3 

 times as long as wide and the maxillipedes are normally developed. 



A single female specimen of this curious new species occurs in a 

 sample from crevices along the seaward reef margin at Falarik in the 

 Ifaluk AtoU.
