The specimens described by Bundy were collected in the neighborhood 
of Rome, Ga., by Prof. D. 8. Jordan. Some of these specimens have been 
communicated to me by Prof. O. P. Hay, of Butler University, Irvington, 
Ind., and Mr. P. R. Uhler, of Baltimore, Md. They embrace males of the 
second form, females, and young. According to Bundy, only one out of the 
nineteen specimens examined by him was a male of the first form. 
In general appearance this species resembles C. affinis, but differs in 
being smoother, in the shortness of the carapace behind the cervical groove, 
the single lateral spine, the absence of spines on the hepatic region, emar- 
ginate epistoma, longer antenns, and in the form of the male appendages, 
which resemble those of C.rusticus and C.obscurus. In these, however, the 
male appendages are shorter, and the rami are shorter relatively to the 
length of the whole appendage. 
The female specimen from the Tennessee River near the borders of 
Georgia, mentioned by Hagen under C. extraneus as resembling C. affinis, 
belongs to this species. Jordan also found C. spinosus in company with 
C. eatraneus in the rivers explored by him in the neighborhood of Rome, 
Georgia. 
In the collection of Butler University is a single female C. spinosus, col- 
lected by Jordan in the Saluda River, South Carolina. In this specimen the 
posterior section of the carapace is a little longer than in the Georgian types, 
the distance from the cervical groove to the posterior border of the cara- 
pace bemg equal to half the distance from the groove to the middle of the
