small differences indicate, however, that the two forms are probably 

 distinct. Austrosyrrhoe rinconis has a distinct dorsal tooth on pleo- 

 nite 5, coxa 3 has a distinctly produced anterior corner, gnathopod 1 

 has a slender article 6, gnathopod 2 has a short article 5, the telsonic 

 cleft is shorter, the second article of pereopod 5 is slightly narrower 

 and rounded posteroventrally, the shaf)e of pleonal epimeron 1 dilfers, 

 article 2 of antenna 1 is shorter and article 3 shorter than in 

 A. septentrio7iall8. 



The new species differs from A. ilergetes J. L. Barnard (1964b) 

 and A. torpens (J. L. Barnard, 1962a, 1961b) in the short and more 

 deeply cleft telson, the shapes of the pleonal epimera, the uninflatecl 

 sixth articles of pereopods 1 and 2 and the shapes of coxae 3 and 4. 

 Austrosyrrhoe prlscls, new species, is easily distinguished from A. 

 rlnconh by the large process on article 2 of antenna 1. Austrosyrrhoe 

 f.tnbriatus (Stebbing and Robertson, 1891) has pleonal epimera, uro- 

 pods, pereopods, and coxae resembling those of .4. rinconis but appar- 

 ently it has a more deeply cleft telson and a peculiar gnathopod 2 

 with very slender and nearly simple article 6.

A male, 4.3 mm long has been dissected for confirmation of this 

 identification. Pereonites 1 and 2 are iimnovably fused together along 

 most of their dorsal juncture, although a chitinous fold marks their 

 boundaries. 



Material.— Station Y229 (8). 



Distribution. — Southern California to middle Baja California,

Diagnosis. — Article 1 of antenna 1 lacking distal process; mouth- 

 parts like B. typica Boeck (see Sars, 1895, pi. 138) ; coxa 3 with ante- 

 rodistal point, coxa 4 not shorter than coxa 3 ; ventrolateral margins 

 of pereonites lacking teeth; only pereonite 7 and pleonites 1, 2, and 

 4 with distinct dorsal teeth, those of pleonites 1 and 2 short and 

 posteriorly directed, tooth of pleonite 4 sharp and erect, although 

 thin and small ; pleonal epimeron 3 with large retrorse, posteroventral 

 tooth, posterior margin not shortened ; pleonal epimeron 2 with small 

 retrorse posteroventral tooth.
