8 FIGURES AND DESCRIPTIONS OF 



The appendages of the three last pairs of thoracic limhs are narrowly oval» 

 with a minute triangular tooth near the base of their inner margin. 



The spinous process of the base of the caudal swimmeret is armed on the inner 

 margin with at most eight slender conical spines, and on the outer with a series 

 of six small tubercles : its outer branch is short, being scarcely half the length of 

 the inner, and not nearly reaching the end of the blunt process of the inner. 



Ophthalmic ring, from above, minute, transversely oblong, with a slight 

 median emargination and rounded antero-lateral angles. Antennulary ring, above, 

 produced into an acute triangular tooth at each antero-lateral angle. 



Eye-peduncles depressed, expanded into squat pitcher-shaped figures, which 

 meet for more than two-thirds of their length in a straight suture, but are sepa- 

 rated for the rest by a semi-circular emargination. 



Cornea bilobed, minute, its inner lobe superior, its outer lobe apical, the sub- 

 jacent pigment visible by transparence as a double coal-black speck. 



Eydoux and Souleyet state, and their statement is repeated by Miers, that the 

 rostrum is slightly emarginate in front, but a reference to their figures shews that 

 the rostrum is perfectly entire, and that it is the ophthalmic ring that is emarginate.

Closely allied to C. Latreillei, differing in the following points : — 

 Rostrum parabolic, sub-triangular, much longer than broad, slightly over- 

 lapping the base of the ophthalmic ring.
