fine yellowish-olive green colour and very slender. The proboseis 
is slightly swollen at the extremity, its length about one fourth 
the total length of the body. The first segment of the body behind 
the proboscis is longer than this; the abdomen is short, the intervals 
between the lateral processes are large. The oculiferous tuberele is not 
very elevate and rounded at the apex. The four eyes are compara- 
tively small. The mandibles (Fig. 31) are furnished with a basal joint a 
little longer than the proboseis and furnished with distinct hairs ; of 
the second joint the claws are longer than those of N. grossipes: the 
movable one is strongly curved and overreaches the immovable at 
the tip. The second joint is densely hairy. The spines of the claws 
are very small and placed close to one another. The palpi are 
very small and short (Fig. 32), the third joint is longer than the 
second, the two last joints are rather broader than the foregoing. 
The ovigerous legs are rather long, their length being 1!/, times 
as long as the body. The fourth joint is considerably curved, the 
fifth, which is longer than the fourth, is swollen at the extremity, 
the sixth is small, the four last joints are still smaller. The spines 
on the four last joints are figured in Fig. 33: they are finely serrated 
but not denticulate. The claw of the ovigerous leg is not very 
strong and furnished at the extremity with a row of small teeth. 
The hairs on the first six joints of the ovigerous legs are so small 
as only to be seen with the microscope. 
The legs are long and slender, the second joint more than twice 
as long as the first, the fourth and fifth very long, the sixth still 
longer; the two tarsal joints are figured in Fig. 34, the first a 
little longer than the second, both almost quite smooth; the claw 
is very long and slender, about as long as the second tarsal joint; 
the auxiliary claws are extremely small (one eighth the length of 
the claw), yet distinct. 
The hairs on the joints of the legs are very small, larger ones 
being observed only on the third joint and at the distal extremity 
of the joints. 
The state of preservation of this specimen was not quite satis- 
factory; so I was unable to determine the sex. Yet to judge from
