478 Mr. G. A. Boulenger on 



thought of sufficient importance to found a new genus {Gala- 

 stacus) on. Moreover, Bell, in his description of the genus 

 Calocaris, sajs that the second antenn£e have " a large trian- 

 gular scale reaching to the end of the first joint," and gives a 

 figure of it at the head of his description of the only species. 

 The length of this scaphocerite seems to be only a matter of 

 degree ; it is very short in the species which has just been 

 described, it is longer in Calastacus investigator is, And., and 

 Calastacus felix, and longest of all in Calastacus stilirostrisy 

 Faxon. 



C. Alcocki \s easily distinguishable from C. Macandrece by 

 the general naked appearance of the body and legs and by 

 the marked differences in the rostrum and chelipeds. 



From Calastacus stilirostris by the short external spine 

 and scaphocerite on the second antennae, the rostrum being 

 grooved, the gastric area being smooth, and by differences in 

 the chelipeds and the telson. 



From C. investiyatoris and C.felix by the carapace having 

 no hairs and not being granular, in having shorter spines on 

 the second antennse, no denticle at the end of the carina, and 

 the abdominal terga smooth, and by differences in the rostrum, 

 telson, and chelipeds. 



The species will be illustrated in an early issue of the 

 " Illustrations of the Zoology of the K.I. M.S. ' Investigator.' "
