Crustacean Fauna of South Africa. 195 
Flagellum of Ist antenna ca. 25-jointed, accessory flagellum 9- 
jointed ; flagellum of 2nd antenna ca. 11-jointed, subequal to ultimate 
peduncular joint which is shorter than penultimate, gland-cone not so 
long as in Chevreux’s specimens. 
Eyes fairly large, reniform; side-plate 1 with antero-inferior angle 
produced acutely forward ; postero-lateral angle of 3rd pleon segment 
somewhat produced, acute, margins not serrate; telsonic lobes rather 
more ovate than in Chevreux’s figure. 
Length : 15 mm. 
Colour : In spirit, pale pinkish. 
Locality: Paternoster Point SE. + E., distant 9 miles (off Saldanha 
Bay). 80 fathoms. 2 gg, 1 ovigerous 2. s.s. “ Pieter Faure.” 
17/3/02. (S.A.M. No. A187.) 
Geogr. Distribution: Azores, 130 metres (Chevreux) ; Ile Djerba, 
Algiers, low-tide (Chevreux ). 
It appears to me to be very doubtful if Chevreux’s species is really 
distinct from inaequipes. But since in the South African material the 
specimens which I assign to hirondellei are distinguishable from those 
I take to be inaequipes by the two teeth defining the palm of the 2nd 
enathopods and the more produced postero-inferior angle of 3rd pleon 
segment, I keep them separate here.

The palm of the right 2nd gnathopod has a defining tooth, a tooth 
near the hinge and between those another tooth, all three being fairly 
strong and acute. Between the defining tooth and the middle tooth 
there isa very small tooth. The left 2nd gnathopod is weak, palm ill 
defined and without teeth. The telson as in Haswell’s description. 
Length: 8 mm. 
Colour: In spirit, uniform dull purplish-brown.
