reduced verruca. Somewhat in front of the middle of the dorsal side of this joint there is a single 

 bristle, which is somewhat shorter than the dorsal side of this joint; apart from this there are 

 no hairs or bristles on the middle of the dorsal side of this joint. One of the two dorso-distal 

 bristles on this joint is unusually short, scarcely half as long as the anterior side of the first 

 endopodite joint. The exopodite is comparatively large; if its end bristles are included, it 

 is about as long as the anterior side of the first endopodite joint. Endopodite: The first 

 joint is not armed anteriorly with chitinous spines. The second joint has at least two proximal 

 bristles; their length I was not able to observe. No long, narrow bristle, with short hairs, 

 between the main bristles b and c. The cleaning bristles are comparatively few in number;
