Unfortunately it is without any label or clue to its origin, but it is 
possible that it may have been collected at Bermuda by Verrill on one 
of his excursions to that island. It is equally possible that it may have 
been taken from an Albatross dredge collection, perhaps in the Philip- 
pines. A pencil sketch, possibly of this same specimen, was found 
among some notes on Philippine species prepared by Dr. Leon J. 
Cole more than 30 years ago. It is, however, without any data, and 
was not drawn by Dr. Cole, and he cannot remember how it came to 
be included among his notes. 
The specimen is mounted in balsam, which has dried into a beau- 
tiful pattern of air bubbles around the legs and trunk and has flattened 
the specimen to less than 0.25 mm. in thickness; in fact the specimen 
looks more like a design for surrealistic wall paper than a pycnogonid. 
This makes it difficult to see some of the finer details. It is such an 
interesting creature, however, that I cannot resist publishing a de- 
scription of it in spite of the lack of information concerning it. 
CALYPSOPYCNON GEORGIAE," new species 
Figure 48 
Holotype (female).—Y.P.M. No. 7308. 
Description.—Trunk completely segmented, lateral processes sep- 
arated by about their own width. Eye tubercle low, rounded, with 
four large well-developed eyes. 
Proboscis half as long as trunk, elliptical in outline. 
Abdomen not quite so long as proboscis, slender. There appears 
to be a protuding structure of some kind about a third of the way 
from the end. This may be a fold caused by the flattening of the 
specimen. 
Palpus 9-jointed, the second longest, fourth half as long as the 
second. Terminal joint as long as preceeding two joints together. 
No spines or setae. 
Chelifore 2-jointed, scape expanded distally, chela submerged 
in the cup. Chelae small, chelate, with a large terminal spine on each 
blunt finger. 
Oviger: There seem to be three basal joints on one oviger, and 
two on the other, but the details are obscure. Probably there are 
three basal joints on each oviger. The four terminal joints bear a 
single row of spines in the following formula: 9:12:12:12. Terminal 
joint tapering toward tip. 
Leg: Second coxa longest, third slightly shorter, first shortest. 
Femur slightly longer than the coxae together. ‘Tibiae subequal, 
slightly longer than the femur. Tarsus about half again as long as 
wide, propodus nearly as long as femur, terminal claw as long as 
7 Kadwye, one of the 3,000 daughters of Tethys and Oceanus (or perhaps Atlas), the mistress of the Island 
of Ogygia, whose charms fascinated that man about the Mediterranean, Ulysses, for seven years, wuxvdr 
compact or thickset, This species is dedicated to a friend who shares Calypso’s charms.
