rustacean Fauna of South rica. 
Crustacean Fauna of South A 
serrate or crenulate. Pleon segment 4 with 3 small dorsal teeth, the 
median one less prominent than the subdorsal ones, pleon segment 5 
with 2 small subdorsal teeth, a seta in the angle of each tooth. 
Postero-inferior angle of pleon segment 5 with a small point, margin 
bulging above. 
Telson with apex straight or shghtly emarginate, a spine at both the 
lateral angles. 
First antenna, Ist joint 2 2nd and equal to 3rd, flagellum not quite 
equal to peduncle, accessory flagellum 7-jointed. 
Second antenna equal to first, ultimate and penultimate joints 
equal, flagellum shorter than peduncle. Both antennae fringed with 
long setae on lower margin. 
First gnathopod, 5th joint as wide as and a little longer than 
6th, the hind margin and palm of the latter forming one continuous 
curve. 
Second gnathopodin ¢, 6thjointvery large, palma littleoblique, finel 
hirsute, defined bya small acute tooth, followed by another similar tooth, 
middle of palm with a low rounded convexity, a squarish, denticulate 
tooth near the hinge, finger closing within defining tooth, tapering 
evenly, not strongly curved; in 2 6th smaller and much narrower in 
proportion to length than in 4, defining tooth rather stout, near it is 
an elongate but very stout spine, near hinge a squarish tooth, finger 
overlapping defining tooth. 
Third peraeopod, 2nd joint broadly oval, hind-margin setose and 
slightly serrate. 
Fourth and fifth peraeopods subequal, larger than 5rd, 2nd joint 
half as long again as broad, postero-inferior angle quadrate, not 
produced, hind margin straight, in ¢ strongly, in 2 slightly serrate. 
Third uropod, peduncle with 3 stout apical spines, inner ramus 
smaller than outer. 
Length: g 4mm., 2 6 mm. 
Colour : Whitish witha series of grey-brown lateral spots, 1 on each 
segment above the junction of side-plates, back and 2nd joint of the 
gnathopods and peraeopods speckled with grey, distal joints of 
peraeopods speckled and banded with grey, eyes black. 
Locality : Buffel’s Bay (False Bay). 28/9/13 and 1/5/15. (K.H.B.) 
1 g, 5 ovigerous 2? ?, and 3 gg, 1 ovigerous 2. (S.A.M. Nos. 
A2956 and A3286.) 
This species is near HL. dentatus (Chevreux), (Rés. Camp. Monaco, 
vol. 16, p. 93, pl. 12, fig. 1), but the side-plates are not dentate, the 
palm of 2nd gnathopod in ¢ has an additional tooth, and the eye is 
smaller and horizontal.
