Specimens from the third, fifth, and eighth stations are all 

 of comparatively small size and have reddish brown eyes, 

 while in specimens from the other stations, whether large or

 ticulation which Bate describes and figures for his Japanese 

 species N. longirostris, the dorsal teeth very numerous, to the 

 rear closely packed, but widely separated forward, where they 

 are accompanied by five ventral teeth. This specimen was 



Ovum, and larvae from ova of Neinatocarcinus, sp.

 rostrum, which measured 18 mm. Another specimen with 

 carapace 30 mm. long has a rostrum 14 mm. in length. This 

 specimen also has five ventral teeth, the dorsal numbering 36.

 dorsal teeth are 19, the tooth most to the rear being clearly
