12 ORTMANN 
Camb. (Procambarus) cub. Ortmann, Ann. Carnegie Mus., III, 
1905, 438. 
Among the material from the Paris Museum, sent to me by 
Professor Bouvier, the following specimens were present: 
Tne (11)202.. Cuba Peters. 
2..4 ¢ (Il), 12. Cuba; Peters. (Nos. 2 and 2 apparently 
from the Berlin Mus.) 
2. 218 (i 2a Cy 42: Amernique >) Morelet. i@aul 
badly damaged, but copulatory organs well preserved.) 
4. 1 0'(I), type of Saussure’s C. consobrinus. (Dry specimen, 
mounted upon a piece of pith; badly damaged, and copulatory 
organs not visible.) 
The following remarks are to be made: 
1. C. consobrinus Saussure! is undoubtedly identical with 
C. cubensis. Although in the present type-specimen the male 
organs are not visible, it agrees with C. cudenszs in all other 
respects. It has a very small lateral spine on the carapace. 
But such a spine is also present in two specimens (d' and &) in 
our first set, while the third (2) has only a trace of it. In the 
five specimens of the second set, which are all very young, two 
males (II) have a small granule in its place; the others are 
apparently smooth. Of the eight specimens of the third set, 
one (a male of the first form) shows a small tubercle, and two 
females have none. The rest is too poorly preserved. 
2. The male copulatory organs (Fig. 3, a—-c) need some dis- 
cussion. The description given by v. Martens (Arch. f. Naturg., 
38, 1872, p. 129) is quite correct, disregarding a lapsus calami 
or misprint, that renders a certain passage unintelligible. Ve 
Martens says (translated): They consist of two parts ‘‘ an outer 
one, which ends in a blunt point, and has the anterior margin 
near this point considerably swollen; and an inner one, which 
extends beyond the former posteriorly, and forms on the inner 
side a plane, ovate face, which ts adjacent to that of the ap- 
pendage of the ANTERIOR Side (‘ welche sich an die des Anhanges 
der VORDEREN Sevte anlegt’). At its end there are two lobes, 
one in close apposition to the end of the outer part, the second 
one shorter, projecting separately forward, and more rounded.”
