JSab. — Bombay. 



Dorsal integument of carapace, free thoracic terga, and abdomen quite smooth 

 between the longitudinal carina;. 



Rostrum parabolic, rounded and truncate at the free end, broader at the base 

 than long, with raised lateral margins and a longitudinal carina. 



Eyes moderate, distinctly divided into two subequal lobes, the outer of which 

 is somewhat the more produced. 



Anterior end of optic ring, from above, with convergent sides and squarely 

 truncate extremity. 



Median ridge of anterior lobe of carapace as in S. inferrupta, that is to say, 

 with the forked part rather shorter than the interval between it and the dorsal 

 papilla, and the bases of its prongs wanting. The antero-lateral spines do not reach 

 the level of the post-rostral depression. 



Great raptorial limbs with the outer margin of the dactylopodite regularly 

 arched and notched near the base, and with the inner margin armed with five regu- 

 larly carved and well separated teeth ; with the dorsal crest of the carpopodite en- 

 tire ; and with the outer and lower apex of the meropodite rounded. 



Only the first and second thoracic limbs are furnished with exopodites. 



Lobes of the outer ends of the fifth thoracic tergum on the same level, sepa- 

 rated from one another at base by only a very narrow cleft ; the anterior acute and 

 forwardly curved, the posterior short and rounded at the extremity : those of the 

 sixth and seventh terga obliquely truncated, with rounded angles, the posterior of 

 which is the more produced : the single (anterior) lobes of the eighth tergum are 

 triangular and acute. 



The fifth thoracic tergum bears a pair of submedian longitudinal carina?, with 

 minute traces of sublaterals and of the short oblique ridges to be seen on the three 

 succeeding terga. 



The sixth, seventh and eighth thoracic terga have each a pair of submedian and 

 a pair of sublateral carina?, with a short oblique ridge, on each side, between the 

 two.
