Female. — The upper antenna; have the second joint of the 

 peduncle edged with a row of six long plumose setge, within 

 which are two minute plumose setse, and between these a 

 single penicillatc auditory organ. The first joint of the lower 

 flagellum is nearly as long as the second joint of the peduncle 

 and much longer than the last joint. 



The lower antenuEe have the penultimate joint furnished with 

 about fourteen spines in the anterior set, and the posterior lobe 

 is edged with twelve plumose setaj, within which are eight long 

 slender straight spines, and in the space between them and 

 the anterior set of spines there is a very long spine which, 

 reaching forward, extends nearly to the extremity of the 

 first joint of the flagellum ; the last joint of the peduncle has 

 eight long slender spines (not plumose seta^) on the posterior 

 margin ; the joints of the flngella of both pairs of antennse are 

 very oblique. 



The gnathopods are obliquely oval and the palm is defined 

 by a strong spine of some length ; in the first pair the palm 

 is somewhat longer than the remaining portion of the poste- 

 rior margin, while in the second pair the slightly concave 

 palm occupies nearly three fourths of the posterior margin.
