Length of body, two and one-fourth inches. The specimen figured 

 and coloured was from the Navigator Group. The carapax has a dark 

 maroon spot, just behind the front ; and the posterior region either 

 side of the middle is of a similar colour dotted with white. The legs 

 are pale sepia with a dark maroon (nearly black) broad band on the 

 third and fourth joints of the second and third pairs. The eye-pedun- 

 cle is pale brown, with a yellow band adjoining the cornea. Inner 

 antennae greenish. Hairs of legs spotted with red and white. Abdo- 

 men along its dorsal surface dark maroon, in part dotted with white. 



The specimens resemble those referred to spinimanus, although 

 different in colouring, in the flagella of the outer antennae, and the 

 much longer eyes. Both hands are convex externally without crests 

 or a seriate arrangement of the spines. The cornea is short. Cara- 

 pax almost wholly naked.
