margin of the carapace between the rostral ani supra-orbital 

 spines. The orbit is a wide and shallow cavity, the bottom 

 of wliich is still some distance behind the anterior margin, 

 and it is defined externally by two spines. The very distinct 

 and throughout dorsal linea anomurica runs to the base of 

 the supra-orbital spine. The carapace is decidedly macrurous 

 in form, thick, with the imperfectly-formed lateral margins 

 twice interrupted by regional grooves. The last two joints of 

 the fifth pair of legs form a perfect subchela, the dactylo- 

 podite coining into complete relation with the basal toothed 

 process of the propodite.
