Bate says: "The figure and description are taken from a 

 specimen from the Cape of Good Hope that was entrusted to 

 me from the Jardin des Plantes." He also gives White as an

 coast. Liitken at first discredited this, but later admitted its 

 possibility.

This species, sent by Dr. P^ringuey, was obtained from the 

 head of Balcena australis, at Cape Town. It has the branchial 

 vesicles doubles, which in the male are accompanied by acces- 

 sory appendages, single on the first pair but double on the 

 second. The third thoracic segment in the male is laterally 

 produced both forward and backward, the following segment 

 only backward.
