128 PHII,TOA SCABRIUSCULA. 



hairy. Lateral parts of the cephalotliorax smooth , defined 

 downwards by a beaded line, the posterior part of which 

 being more coarsely granulated than the rest. The joints 

 of the male abdomen are all united , except the last , tihough 

 the sutures are visible: it is puuctulated , as is also 

 the sternum, the basal joint is granulated; in the same 

 manner the basal joints and the basal part of the penul- 

 timate joint of the female abdomen are gi-anulated. Ante- 

 rior legs twice and a half as long as the carapace in the 

 male , but only twice as long in the female. Arm slender , 

 cylindrical , granulated , except a narrow longitudinal space 

 on the middle of the upper surface; the under surface also 

 nearly smooth , except at its base ; the granules rather 

 large , disposed in longitudinal series. Wrist smooth , with 

 a few minute granules at the inner margin. Hands in 

 the male elongated , depressed , smooth , minutely punc- 

 tate ; external margin of the palm granular , internal margin 

 rounded , minutely granulated , the granules not disposed in 

 longitudinal series (as described in Bell's diagnose); immobile 

 finger a little shorter than the palm , mobile finger curved , 

 longer than the other , both fingers longitudinally sulcate and 

 minutely granular; inner margins toothed over the whole 

 length , some large teeth alternating with smaller ones. In the 

 female the fingers are somewhat longer than the palm, the 

 lateral margins of the latter and the also sulcate fingers very 

 minutely granulated. Ambulatory legs smooth, with the 

 upper and under margins of the meropodites minutely gra- 

 nulated , tarsi laraelliform , the external surface with two 

 longitudinal grooves , the internal surface carinate. 



In our Atjeh specimens the upper surface of the cara- 

 pace and the anterior legs are of a more or less dark ci- 

 nerous gray, the hands being marbled with a lighter rose- 

 colour; the under surface of the carapace, like the ambu- 

 latory legs , except the white tarsi , are of a pale rose- 

 colour. The granules are all white. 



Length of carapace (epistonie included) of the largest 

 male specimen 15 mm.
