of inner antennae, each about half as long as other antennae, the

Beak moderately long, not recurved, nine to ten-toothed above, below 

 near apex two-toothed, towards base over eyes abruptly much 

 broader, then narrowing a little. Antennary scale much broader 

 than in R. luddus, not shorter than beak, three teeth of outer margin 

 rather prominent. Feet of second pair stout chelate, hand oblong, 

 fingers short, much gaping. Six posterior feet lax crinite ; third 

 joint of third and fourth pairs with three or four serratures below.

Length of body, ten lines. The dorsal line of the cephalothorax 

 curves downward at the commencement of the beak, so that the ex- 

 tremity of the beak is at much the lowest level ; the teeth of the beak 

 are rather close, the apex of each one reaching usually to base of next. 

 Of the two below, the second is under the first of those above (count- 

 ing from apex). The fingers of the hand bear short tufts of hairs; 

 the tarsus is armed with a few minute spinules.
