 lowing places: — Tsu-Shima (P. xl. Hoist) ; Corea {J. Kali- 

 nousici) ', 8.E. Corea {A. Carpenter)- Che Foo, N. Cliina 

 {Miss Macomish) .

 eleventh, and thirteenth tergites have their posterior angles 

 produced, the angles of the rest are nearly squared and the 

 posterior borders not or hardly emarginate. Coxal teeth of 

 the maxillipedes are strongly produced and furnished with 

 2 -H 2 large teeth and a smaller external tooth. Coxal pores 

 rounded, uniserial, .'i or 4 in number.
