 Lucifer typus, Cams, Prodr. Faun. Medit. i. p. 470 (1885). 



This species is closely related to L. batei ( = L. reynaudii, 

 Bate), but differs in the shorter neck and longer sixth 

 abdominal segment, and also, probably, in the petasma. 

 Cams' s definition of it seems to be derived from a misreading 

 of Milne-Edwards's diagnosis of L. typus.

(1872). 



In Semper's figure of the end of the abdomen of the male, 

 the tip of the exopodite of the uropod is either incorrectly 

 drawn or indicates that the individual from which it was 

 taken represents a species different from any hitherto 

 described. The female seems to differ in no important 

 respect from L. faxoni, but, in view of the locality in which 

 Semper's specimens were taken, it is at least doubtful whether 

 they belong to Faxon's species.
