c The dorsal border of the rostrum is spinose in all its extent. 



fl', Dactyli of the three posterior legs long and slender, the dactylus 



of the 4"' pair measuring at least one-fifth of the propodus. 



^j Carpus of the three posterior legs conspicuously longer than 



the propodus, the carpus of the 3'^<i pair 2 — 273-times as 



long as the propodus, dactylus of the 4''' pair one-fifth of 



the propodus. 



/, Rostrum almost twice as long as the carapace, upper border 



armed with 50 — 55, lower with about 70 teeth . . . longipes (A. M.-Edvv.) 

 (A. MiLNE-EuwARDS, Recueil Figures Crust, nouv. 1883, PI. 20). 



/„ Rostrum one and a half as long as the carapace or a 

 little .shorter, upper border armed with 27 — 33, lower 



with 22 — 27 teeth longipes (A. M.-Edvv.) var. indica de Man 



e. Carpus of the three posterior legs little longer than the pro- 

 podus, the carpus of the 3''<^ pair i ^j-times as long as the 

 propodus, dactylus of the 4"' pair one-third of the propodus Ortinanni Dofl. 

 d., Dactyli of the three posterior legs short, the dactylus of the 

 4"' pair measuring less than one-tenth of the propodus. 

 g^ Lower margin of the rostrum with numerous, 20 or more 

 spines; dactylus of the 4"^ pair of legs measuring 

 (according to the figure in Borradaile's paper) Yis the 



length of the propodus longirostris (Borr.)

I) This species is placed here with some doubt, because the description does not mention whether the lejs of the z"'' piir are 

 equal or not: according to Mr. Bokkad.mi.e, however, it appears to be related to Phs. marlia (.\. M.-Edw.) and Pics, ensis (A. M.-Edw.).
