 that genus, the so-called ]ialp of the maxillipeds is three-jointed, 

 but alike in C. emeus (Say) and C. tuftsii (Stinipson) the first 

 joint of the palp is much tlie shortest, whereas in the two species 

 of Ohlin's genus that proportion belongs to the third joint.

The species has been amply described and figured by Dr. Ohlin 

 from a female specimen, 7 mm. long. Mr. Vallentin obtained a 

 specimen 1.5 mm. in length, another 14 mm., both 6-5 in breadth, 

 and a third of nearly the same length as the second. As these 

 all happened to be females, there was no opportunity of com- 

 paring the male appendix with that of Ohlin's other species, 

 M. mirhaelsevii, of which he gives the measurements as " length 

 of males 11-5 mm. ; breadth 5-5 mm. Female smaller."
