de M., but the stylocerite just as long as Ist antennular article, and 

 the carpocerite, wbich is 3,7-times longer tban wide, a little sborter. 



Telsou 2,35-times longer than the width of posterior margin, 

 proportion between the greatest width and that of posterior margin 

 1,77; spinules of upper surface situated just as far backward and 

 the two rows as close together as in Syn. Neomeris, the distance 

 between the anterior pair and the posterior margin being just 

 one third the length of the telson. 



Meropodite of larger chelipede 2,3-time3 longer than wide, 

 upper margin obtuse at extremity, lower angle of carpus with 

 a long, spiniform tooth, chela as in Syn. Neomeris. Smaller 

 ehela resembling that of Syn. jedanensis, proportion total length : 

 height = 2,7 : 1 ; proportion total length : length of the 

 fingers = 2,336 : 1. 



Second legs as in Syn. Neomeris. The proportions of the members 

 of the 3rd legs are : meropodite 2,72; carpus 1; propodite 2,1; 

 those of 4th legs : meropodite 2,32; carpus 1; propodite 2.1. These 

 legs much resemble those of Syn. Neomeris^ especially the dactyli 

 are quite the same (vide : Zoolog. Jahrb. (Spengel), X, 1898, PI. 35, 

 Fig. 61e), but the meropodites bear only one single small spin ule.
