Special tiriiunohxjif: - K i r s t ;i ii t f ii ii ;i : ^ For tlic live l)iistl('s on the two distal 

 joints 1 havf used tho sanip alphabetical notatmn m this ficiius as 1 did lor tin- ficmis Hnlonipris 

 abovo. Thus tin- two liristlcs of tin- next to thr distal jnint arc dmntrd l>v a and 1); licrc in 

 tlio niaU- the hyaline sensorial tilainrnt is di-noti'd as the a-lnistlc. the loiijj;, (irdiiiai\- l)ristle 

 as the b-bristle. The disto-anteriur ol' t lir t lure lni.stles on the end joint is denoted as the e-hiistle, 

 the two others as the c- and dd)ristles, the lonj; ordinary bristle in the male IxMn^ denoted as 

 the d-bristle. the remaining one. the liyaline sensorial tilanient, as the e-bristle. 



Mandible: — As in the case of the genus Halucypris so in this genus tlu- hiistles 

 denoted by ('. Ci.Als as ..Stachelziihne" are termed lancet-bristles. 



F i f t h limb: — Those of tlie bristles on the first exopodite joint that are situated 

 niedio-ventrally. in most cases somewhat proximally of half the length of the joint, are called 

 ..the medio-ventral bristles'", the ventral group of bristles at or somewhat proximally of half 

 the length of the joint are called ,,ihe proximo-ventral" bristes and the ventral group near the 

 distal boundary of this joint are termed ..the disto-ventral" bristles. 



K (1 il - s h a J) e d organ: — The distal part of this organ, which is, at least in the 

 males, in most cases well marked off, and which, is called by G. W. MUlkek ,,Endstuck", is 

 called in the present work ,,capitulum", after the example of G. S. B1{AIjy and A. M. NORMAN. 

 The part situated proximally of the capitulum is called the shaft. 



Spinifera group G. W. Muller 



(= Paraconchoecia [part.] C. CiiAUS). 



Nitmber of species. C. Claus, 1891a, included in the genus ParaconcJioecia, besides the species Conchoecia 



ohlonga dealt with below, the following species: 



Conchoecia spinifera, (C. Claus), 1891 a, p. 64; pi. X. 

 „ inermis, „ ,. 1891 a. p. 65; pi. XI. 



gracilis, .. .. 1891 a, p. 66; pi. XII. 



AJl these species, except C. gracilis, which appeared to be a synonym of C. elegans 

 G. 0. Sars, are included by G. W. MOller, 1906 a, in the Spinifera group established by him. 

 In addition this writer adds the following species to this group in the work just mentioned: 

 Conchoecia allotherium, G. W. MtJLLER, 1906 a, p. 59; pi. XI, figs. 15—19. 



aequiseta, „ ,, „ 1906 a, p. 59; pi. XI, figs.l— 6, and 11 — 14. 



hirsuta, „ „ ., 1906 a, p. 60; pi. XI, figs. 1—3 and 6— 10. 



tnamillala, „ „ ,. 1906 a, p. 60; pi. XVI, figs. 1—9; pi. XXXV, 



fig. 8. 

 „ echinata, „ „ „ 1906 a, p. 61; pi. X, figs. 14 — 24. 



„ dorsotuberculala, „ „ „ 1906 a, p. 63; pi. X, figs. 1 — 3 and 8 — 13.
