Crustacean Fauna of South Africa. 147 
subacute, without setae or teeth, outer plate reaching to end of 2nd 
joint of palp, apex with 1 incurved spine, inner margin very minutely 
crenulate, 2nd joint palp with a tuft of setae on inner apex, 3rd joint 
distinctly narrower than 2nd and nearly twice as long, inner apex 
slightly produced beyond insertion of the narrow, unguiform 4th 
joint, a subapical group of setules on inner margin of 3rd joint. 
First gnathopod subchelate, 2nd joint not lobed on anterior apex, 
5th joint produced below into a narrow process, apically subacute and 
bearing 4 long spines, 6th ovate, broader across junction of palm with 
inferior margin, which junction is ill defined and non-angular, but 
bearing a small spine, palm with numerous denticles and 2 short 
spines. between which margin is convex, as is also the case between 
the upper spine and the hinge, finger curved, inner margin with 11 
strong pointed, outstanding teeth. 
Second gnathopod similar to Ist but a little larger, 6th joint expand- 
ing a little distally, palm evenly convex, its junction with interior 
margin a little more angular, but still not well-defined, studded with 
minute tubercles. 
First and second peraeopods slender, very sparsely spinose, finger 
without apical tubercle. 
Third peraeopod slender, similar to Ist and 2nd, 2nd joint not 
enlarged. 
Fourth and fifth peraeopods stouter, 2nd joint expanded oblong, 
hind margin straight, entire, postero-inferior angle rounded, 4th pro- 
duced on hind margin to middle (4th peraeopod) or end (5th peraeo- 
pod) of 5th joint, finger without a tubercle. 
First uropod reaching beyond 2nd and 8rd, rami subequal, as long 
as peduncle. 
Second uropod, outer ramus ? length of inner. 
Third uropod, outer ramus equal to peduncle and 3 inner ramus, 
not reaching apex of inner ramus of 2nd uropod, apex of peduncle 
acutely produced. Upper margin of all the rami of all 3 uropods 
finely serrulate. 
Length: 2 mm. 
Colour: Uniform dark claret, 4th—6th pleon segments, telson, 
uropods and limbs whitish. 
Locality: Sea Point, near Cape Town. 15/11/13. (K.H.B.) 4 
specimens. (S.A.M. No. A2921.) 
The short telson and subchelate Ist gnathopod distinguish this 
species from the two northern ones.
