The long and pointed rostmm is more vertical and the head is much more suddenly raised 

 than seen in Giesbrecht's fig. 23 (Taf. 36) (text-fig. 29 h). The genital somite has the ventral pro- 

 tuberance more regularly raised, especially behind, than shown in Giesbrecht's fig. 17 (text-fig. 293). 



The antennulae differ from Giesbrecht's description by the comparatively longer segment 

 2, which is almost as long as segments 80^9. The maxillulae differ from Giesbrecht's description 

 (fig. 28) by one instead of 2 delicate Sa in Li 2, and by the presence of a posterior process bearing two 

 rudimentary setae (?) on the Li 3 in addition to the two well developed Sa. The sensory conical process 

 of Lob. IV of the second basipodite of the maxillipeds is rather small. 



The pes I is completely like Giesbrech's fig. n (Taf. 15); the Re III has a minute pore in 

 the outer margin, somewhat posteriorly, and nearer the base than the tip. The pes II, which has 22 teeth 

 in the terminal setae, has the systems of glands of the Re well developed, in a similar way as figured
