. Pseudorostrum with obtuse apices and autero- lateral angle slightly 

 expressed iu advance of the strong laterally divergent and apically incurved 

 cornua. Behind these the stiff very spinulose carapace is a little constricted, 

 and then continued with non-carinate lateral borders to the broadly rounded 

 hind margin which appears truncate in lateral view. The 2"*^ pedigerous 

 segment is much lower than the carapace. The whole body is spinulose 

 in the Q , but only faintly so in the 6 . The pleon is long and especially 

 in the Q very slender. In the d the 5*'^ segment is narrowed rather abruptly 

 in the distal half. Eye with distinct pigment and the corneal lenses (as 

 figured by G. 0. Sars) more than 3. Antenna 1, S*^ joint as long as 1^*, 

 much longer than 2"^^, both flagella 1 -jointed, the accessory very small but 

 distinct. Antenna 2 in 9 with P* joint angularly bent, carrying laterally 

 2 small plumose setae, and succeeded by a minute setuliferous 2^^*^ joint; 

 in d the flagellum reaching beyond the uropods. Mouth-organs in near 

 agreement with those of E. taprobanicuui (nr. 2), but in maxilliped 3 the 3'' 

 joint is much shorter than the 4*''. Peraeopod 1, 2"*^ joint large, strong, 

 spinulose, nearly as long as the 5 remaining joints combined, its forward 

 extended triangular apex overlapping the 3^ joint, 5*^ and G*^ii joints longest 

 of the 5, subequal, not specially long. The small 6-jointed 2°*^ peraeopod 

 has a long spine at apex of the 4*'^ joint, in this species the 3"^ joint being 

 present and the 7*^' suppressed. Peduncle of uropods a little less than half 

 as long as the subequal rami, with 3 plumose setae on its medial margin, 

 7 on that of the endopod in the 9 , these margins thickly set with setae 

 and spines in the 6 . Colour dusky in 9 , lighter in d . L. 9 5 mm, 

 (S 6"8 mm.

Only d known. The affinity is with E. taprobanicuui (nr. 2), but differing 

 in the narrower and less depressed form of the carapace, which has the lateral 

 borders nearly parallel, not carinate. There is a transverse dorsal depression 

 behind the frontal lobe. Peraeopod 1 has the 2°*^ joint narrower and the 

 spines on its lower surface more numerous, the 7*^' joint only half as long 

 as the sixth. Peraeopod 2 has the spine on the produced 4*'' joint less 

 extended. Peduncle of uropods nearly one-third of the length of the rami.
