Remarks. — The name L. intermcdius is given to this species, as it, though belonging 

 in general aspect and most characters to group B, has in the petasma the distally deeply incised 

 processus ventralis, and especially the transverse lines on the distal inner side of its terminal 

 portion. Besides, the eye-stalks are not conical as f. inst. in L. Faxonii, and the exopod of the 

 uropods is somewhat narrow. The male resembles that of L. Faxonii and differs from the two 

 other species of this group in having on the exopod of the uropods the marginal process or 

 tooth conspicuously or much overreaching the upper distal angle of the exopod; the female 

 can frequently, but sometimes not, be distinguished with absolute certainty from every female 

 of L. pcnicillifer. 



Distribution. — j\ccording to the list of localities this species is rather common in 

 the major part of the "Siboga" area. The Copenhagen Museum possesses it from lat. o°i4'N., 

 long. 107° 6' E. (Capt. Andrea); Chinese Sea, Hongkong — Shanghai ("Galathea"), and a good 

 number from the Gulf of Yeddo, Japan ("Galathea").
