144 Carcinological Fauna of India. 
marks the position of the true inner supra-orbital angle. Outer orbital 
angle spiniform. Suborbital lobe dentiform, fairly prominent. 
True antero-lateral borders of the carapace cut into 2 teeth, the 
anterior being much the larger and spine-like. In the gap between the 
lst tooth and the outer orbital angle two small smooth subhepatic 
tubercles are visible, one below the other. 
An elegant pearl-like tubercle below the sub-orbital lobe, a similar 
but smaller tubercle in the middle of the exposed surface of the merus of 
the external mazillipeds and another in the middle of the exposed surface 
of the second joint of the antennal peduncle, are characteristic. 
An extremely inconspicuous denticle on the postero-lateral border, 
behind the branchial or “ cervical” groove. 
Outer surface of wrist and upper surface of hand nodular, two of 
the nodules on the wrist being particularly acute. 
Outer surface of carpus and propodite of first 2 pair of legs broken 
but not nodular. 
Last 2 pair of legs slender and very short, ending in claw-like 
dactyli, but not cheliform. 
Abdomen of male convex along the middle liue. 
One specimen from the Andaman Sea, 490 fathoms, another from 
off Ceylon, 54 fathoms. 
The carapace is between 5 and 6 millim. long. 
10. Dromia (Cryptodromia) de Mani, n. sp. 
Cryptodromia sp. de Man, Journ. Linn. Soc. Zool., XXII., 1888, p. 211. 
Carapace etc. tomentose. 
Carapace as long as broad, convex, smooth, the “ cervical” groove 
rather indistinct. 
Front cut into 3 teeth, the middle one of which is the smallest and 
is much deflexed. 
A tooth near the middle of the upper border of the orbit (true 
inner supra-orbital angle). Outer orbital angle dentiform. 
Suborbital lobe dentiform, but not very prominent. 
True antero-lateral border with two blunt teeth: two more blunt 
teeth on the subhepatic border and one at the angle of the buccal cavern - 
are continued on from the antero-lateral border. 
A tooth on the hepatic region, dorsad of the antero-lateral border, and 
just behind the outer orbital angle, is characteristic. 
A tiny denticle on the postero-lateral border, just behind the 
branchial or “ cervical” groove. 
Outer surface of wrist and upper surface of hand nodular; outer 
surface of haud granular.
