scale, in the male from Stat. 170 it projects by half the terminal joint beyond it; 3'-'' joint a 

 little broader and shorter than 2'"'. Outer flagellum (16 mm.) slightly more than twice as long 

 as the peduncle and a little longer than the carapace excluding the rostrum, proximally expanded 

 and passing just beyond the middle into the filiform terminal part; inner flagellum little shorter 

 than outer. 



Antennal scale about one and a half as long as broad, 6 mm. long, 3,75 mm. broad, 

 broadest just behind the middle and with a small spinule at the proximal third part of the 

 outer margin. Terminal joint of right antennal peduncle slightly shorter than that of the left, 

 the peduncle reaching therefore in the latter to the tip of the antennal scale, while that of the 

 right is -slightly shorter than it. External maxillipeds reaching almost to the tip of the antennal 

 scale, in the Indian specimens only to the middle. 



The legs of the 2"^ pair reach almo.st to the apex of the antennal scale, those of the 

 y^ project by the dactyli beyond it, the 4"^ are slightly shorter and the 5"^ reach to the distal 

 third of the scale. The dactyli of the y^ pair measure little more than one-third of the propodi, 

 those of the 4"' two-thirds their propodi, w.hile the dactyli of the 5"' pair are a little shorter 

 than those of the 4"^; they show the same lanceolate form as in most other species of this 

 genus, the dactyli of the two last pairs grooved along their whole length, those of the 3"' only 

 along the distal third part of the upper side, the rest being rather convex; as usually the 

 propodi of the two last pairs end in a brush of setae. 



This specimen (in spirit) has a cream colour, the tips of some spines are red, namely 

 the apex of the rostrum, of the anterior pair of rostral spines, of the orbital, the branchiostegal 

 and the large wing-like spine of the 4"^ carina, of the short spines on the lower border of the 

 pleura, the apex of the telson, the hairs on the two last joints of the external maxillipeds and 

 the dactyli of the i^^ pair of legs. 



General distribution: Bay of Bengal, near the Andamans.

A new species which I have the pleasure to dedicate to Mr. W.\lter Faxon, the author 

 of the valuable Report on the Stalk-eyed Crustacea, obtained by the "Albatross" in 1891. It 

 belongs to that Section of the genus, in which the anterior half of the 4''' or lateral crest of 

 the carapace is cut into two small teeth, the anterior of which falls short of or hardly 

 extends beyond the anterior border of the carapace. It is therefore related to Glyph. (Plasto- 

 trangon) caecescens W.-Mas., but differs from it by the shape of the posterior moiety of the y^ 

 or dorso-lateral crest and by the smoother surface of carapace and abdomen between the crests. 



Carapace and abdomen are glabrous, naked. The rostrum (Fig. 62c) of the female from
