surface of hand scarcely seriate, under surface of hand glabrous, 

 fingers channeled, the upper spinulous above. Eight posterior feet 

 hirsute, excepting sides of third joint, upper margin of third joint 

 spinulous.

In the pilumnoides, as described and figured by White, the antero- 

 lateral margin has distinct teeth, and although consisting of spinules 

 in part, there is a prominent or dominant spine. In our specimens, 

 the five normal teeth may be distinguished, though much subdivided 

 into smaller teeth, and irregularly so; D consists of two teeth; E of 

 two; N of four; T of three, with two or three on the surface above; 

 S of one, with one or two on the upper surface. D and E are so close 

 together that they appear at first to make a single group. The mi- 

 nute tubercles of the anterior part of the carapax are somewhat acute, 

 or like short spinules on the areolets near the antero-lateral margin. 

 The surface of the carapax is hairy, but nearly naked posteriorly, and 

 the legs are rather long hairy; the hairs are like bristles, and many 

 of them black in their lower half, but become light-coloured in their 

 upper half. The anterior margin of the arm has about three small 

 teeth on its lower half, and is hardly denticulate above, instead of 

 having prominent teeth, towards apex, as in the figure by Adams and 

 White.

GENUS CYCLODIUS. 



Chlorodio affinis, carapace angustiore, suborbiculato, articulo maxilli- 

 pedum externorum tertio triangulate, paulo transverso, latere intcriore

 maxillipeds triangular, a little transverse, the inner side below fourth 

 joint very short.
