Gen. 67. AnehOrabOlUS, Norman, 1903. 



Generic Characters. Body armed with numerous horn-like, partly branched 

 processes curving backwards, and forming several rows, dorsal, sub-dorsal and lateral. 

 Rostral projection well defined, narrow linear. Anterior antennae in female com- 

 posed of only 3 ioints, in male 5-articulate and distinctly hinged. Posterior an- 

 tennae with the distal joint very slender, linear. Mandibular palp small, uniarti- 

 culate. Posterior maxillipeds very slender. 1st pair of legs differing conspicuously 

 in structure from the succeeding ones, both rami biarticulate, the inner one being 

 the Idnger. Inner ramus of the 3 succeeding pairs much smaller than the outer, 

 but distinctly biarticulate, 1st joint very short, 2nd narrow linear; outer ramus 

 slender, 3-articulate. Inner ramus of 2nd pairs of legs in male slightly trans- 

 formed. Last pair of legs with a well-defined setiferous expansion inside the 

 proximal joint, wanting, however, in male. 



Remarks. This is the typical genus from which the present family has 

 been named. It differs conspicuously from the 3 other genera treated of below, 

 in the armature of the body, as also in the structure of some of the appendages. 

 Only a single species is known to me, but Mr. Norman mentions having also 

 observed a second species of the present genus.

Specific Characters. Female. Body comparatively slender, sub-linear in 

 form, though at first sight appearing rather broad, on account of the numer- 

 ous processes flanking it both dorsally and laterally. Cephalic segment scarcely 

 longer than the 2 succeeding segments combined, and slightly contracted in front, 

 anterior edge almost transversely truncated, though projecting in the middle in a 

 narrow horizontal rostrum minutely bifid at the tip, and provided on each side 

 with a knob-like projection tipped with a small hair; antero-lateral corners of the 

 segment produced to a short spine pointing straight outwards ; dorsal face carry- 

 ing 2 pairs of horn-like, posteriorly-curving processes, the anterior one simple, the 

 posterior trifid. On each side of this segment, moreover, 3 successive processes 

 are seen, the 2 anterior ones lateral and bifurcate, the posterior one sub-dorsal 

 and tripartite. Each of the 4 succeeding segments provided with one pair 

 of dorsal processes, one pair of sub-dorsal, and one pair of lateral, the dorsal
