lost. There is also a record of the species from station 4724, likewise 
in the Galipagos. This species was present in the Carnegie and 
Siboga plankton lists. 
CANDACIA TURGIDA, new species 
PLATE 22, Figures 305-308 
Stations 5102; 53819; 5422. Ten female specimens were obtained at 
station 5102 off southern Luzon, Philippine Islands. They cannot be 
referred to any of the described species and so are designated a new 
species. Other specimens were found in the China Sea near For- 
mosa, station 5319, and between Panay and Guimaras, Philippine 
Islands, station 5422. 
Female.—Metasome elliptical, two and a half times as long as wide, 
and narrowed at both ends. The anterior portion of the head with 
parallel sides is reduced to less than half the width of the thorax, 
and the forehead protrudes scarcely at all at the center. The first 
three segments of the thorax increase in length posteriorly and dimin- 
ish in width. The fused fourth and fifth segments are the same 
length as the third, almost squarely truncated posteriorly, with short 
acute spines at the corners. Urosome one-third as long and one- 
fourth as wide as the metasome and 3-segmented. Genital segment 
a trifle longer than wide, with nearly parallel sides, the anterior end 
protruding ventrally. From the posterior margin of the protruber- 
ance a conical process extends downward and backward a little be- 
yond the end of the segment. This process is considerably darker 
than the segment and is perfectly opaque. The basal abdominal 
segment is as long as the genital segment, while the anal segment 
is only half as long with its posterior corners obliquely truncated. 
The caudal rami are as long as the anal segment, slightly longer than 
wide and tapered distally. 
The first antennae reach the caudal rami and are 24-segmented, 
the 6 basal segments considerably widened, the remaining 18 seg- 
ments abruptly narrowed and subfilose. The basal portion and the 
transition into the terminal portion are shown enlarged in figure 307. 
The terminal portion is sometimes bent backward at its Junction with 
the basal portion as shown in the figures, although there is no genicu- 
late joint. In one specimen both antennae were bent in this way; 
in two others only one antenna was so bent, the other being straight. 
In the second antennae the basal segment of the endopod is consider- 
ably thickened and the short exopod is attached to its inner margin 
near the base. The first four pairs of legs are similar to those in other 
species of the genus, the exopods 3-segmented, the endopods 2-seg- 
mented. The fifth legs are uniramose and 3-segmented; the proximal
