The third endite has nine or ten bristles distallv. Of these nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 9, counting from 

 outside, are of about the same type, subequal, moderately long and strong, with a wreath of 

 long, stiff secondary bristles at the middle and rather finely pectinated distally; on bristle no. 3, 

 whicli is somewhat more powerful than the others, the pectination is also somewhat stronger. 

 Bristles nos. 5 and 8 are of about the same length as tlie former ones, but rather considerably 

 more powerful, furnished distally with a varying number of powerful secondary teeth and 

 a number of weak ones; these two bristles are quite without long secondary bristles. Between 

 these two bristles there is a bristle of the same type but in most cases rather considerably shorter. 

 The remaining bristle or, in the case of ten bristles (which seems to be the more usual), the two 

 remaining ones are in most cases somewhat longer than the others, are rather finely pectinated 

 distally and usually have two wreaths of long, stif? secondary bristles at the middle (see fig. 14 

 of Pli. (Sol.) Afpellufi). The bristle situated proximally on the outside of this process has long 

 hairs or is almost bare; it is of about the same length and strength as the outer distal bristles 

 on this process. The dorso-distal bristle on the protopodite is of about the same length as the 

 last-mentioned bristle. On the boundary between the protopodite and the endopodite there 

 are three bristles: one close to the exopodite, one at the middle of the inside of the palp and 

 one on the anterior side of the palj). The first of these is about as long as the endopodite and 

 is usually furnislied at tlie middle with two wreaths of long, stiff secondary bristles and with 

 short hairs distally. Of the two others the one on the inside of the paljD is of the same type 

 as the former one, but somewhat longer, and is in most cases furnished with three wreaths of 

 bristles; the bristle on the anterior edge is about as long as the first endopodite joint and has 

 in most cases a collection of long, stiff secondary bristles at the middle and short hairs distally. 

 Exopod ite: Of the three bristles two are usually long, subequal or somewhat different 

 in length, and about as long as the endopodite, in most cases furnished with some irregular 

 wreaths of long, stiff secondary bristles at the middle and with short hairs distally. The third 

 is considerably shorter, often only about half the length of the former ones, often furnished with 

 some long secondary bristles at the middle and short hairs distally; on one specimen this bristle 

 was about as long as the two other bristles. The long secondary bristles on these three bristles 

 seem to vary a good deal. E n d o p o d i t e: First joint: The bristle situated distally on the 

 anterior side is not quite as long as this joint; in most cases it has one or two wreaths of long, 

 stiff secondary bristles at the middle and short hairs distally. Distally-posteriorly this joint 

 has five bristles, with short hairs or almost bare. End joint (fig. 14): This has four bare or almost 

 bare a-bristles, four or five, in most cases five, c-bristles with short hairs. The three strong 

 bristles among the b- and d-bristles are fairlv stronglv or else weaklv pectinated at tlie middle. 

 Pilosity: The third endite has soft hairs situated close together on the outside; the first endopodite 

 joint has, especially on the anterior side, numerous transverse groups of short, fine hairs. 

 Fifth limb: — Protopodite: First endite: Of the six bristles the four middle 

 ones are subequal, moderately long and strong; the anterior one and the posterior one are 

 considerably sliorter and weaker, in most cases less than lialf the length of the four otliers. All 

 these bristles have one or two obli(|ue wreaths of long, stiff secondary bristles; bristle no. 2.
