The South African specimen agrees completely v^ith the 

 excellent figures and description supplied by Professor S. I. 

 Smith, and corroborated by Mr. Stanley Kemp, who in addi- 

 tion gives interesting information as to the development. In 

 this species the rostrum is much shorter than in the Indian 

 species of the genus described by Colonel Alcock. The mouth 

 organs in this genus have several noteworthy peculiarities, 

 such as the abrupt narrowing of the palp in the first maxillae. 

 Our specimen measured 79 mm. in length, of which the 

 carapace occupied 28 mm. and the telson 12-5 mm.

 The South African specimen shows no difference of any 

 importance from Miss Eathbun's figures and description.
