cimen (probably an ovigerous female) the 2nd joint on the outer lobe had 2 

 parallel rows of small teeth on its rostral margin near the apex. 



2nd maxillae (fig. pg and h). 2nd joint with 3 — 5 apical setae, which are 

 plumose in females with marsupium. 3rd joint about ^/^ (or in females with 

 marsupium Ys) ^^ broad as the 2nd; its distal end with one long and one 

 short seta. In females with marsupium (fig. 9 d) both setae are very short and broad. 



Maxillipeds (fig. 10 a) normal. In the females with marsupium (fig. 10 b) 

 they are, as, usual considerably metamorphosed. 



ist—jrdpereiopods (fig. 10 c). Merus on the lower margin with 5 setae, 

 of which the longest is placed in the lower distal angle. The seta in the 

 middle of the lower margin is pointed, more slender and of a different type 

 from the others, which are broad and strong, 



^th—yth pe7'eiopods (fig. 10 d). Second joint with a strong longitudinal keel 

 on its anterior surface. The following joints are amply provided with short and 

 strong setae. 



2nd pleopod of male. The male stylet extends beyond the distal margin 

 of the endopod. 



Uropods. Endopod subtriangular, more than twice as broad as the exopod, 

 reaching slightly beyond the apex of the last abdominal segment. Outer mar- 

 gin of endopod slightly convex, inner margin strongly curved, distal margin 

 almost straight, furnished with long setae and 9 spines. Exopod lanceolate. 



Remarks. 



Lanocira hirsuta is closely allied to L. Kroyeri Hansen. It differs from 

 this species chiefly in the last abdominal segment, which is considerably longer, 

 has a narrower apex, and carries 6 spines on the distal margin (instead of 4). 

 Further it is more hairy, and the 2nd maxilla carries 2 apical setae (instead 

 of one). 



Another closely allied species is L. zeylanica Stebb. L. hirsuta differs 

 from this species mainly in its still longer pleotelson with narrower apex, the 

 1st maxillae, which have their 2nd joints of the outer lobe less curved, and 

 the 2nd maxillae, which have their 2nd joints furnished with apical setae; the 

 3rd joint is much narrower than in L. zeylanica. Further the 7th pereiopods 

 have much shorter setae as is also the case in L, Kroyeri, and the male stylet 

 on the 2nd pleopod is longer. L. hirsuta is also still more hirsute than L. 

 zeylanica.
