NOEMANELLA. 87 



Genus 19. NORMANELLA, nov. gen. 



Animal rigid, subcylindrical ; abdomen as wide as 

 the thorax and not distinctly separated from it; 

 caudal segments and setae small. Anterior antennae 

 short, 7 -jointed ; secondary branch of posterior an- 

 tennse small, 1 -jointed ; mandible palp small, with two 

 minute 1-jointed branches ; maxillar palp well deve- 

 loped, with several setose digits ; second foot-jaw 

 forming a small clawed hand . Inner branch of first 

 pair of feet elongated, 2-jointed, the second joint 

 short, and bearing two long apical setae ; outer branch 

 short, 3 -jointed; inner branches of the second, third, 

 and fourth pairs 2-jointed; fifth pair foliaceous, 

 2-jointed. 



In general appearance this genus resembles Lao- 

 phonte and Cletodes. From the former, however, it 

 is separated by its branched mandible- palp and the 

 want of a prehensile claw on the first foot ; from Cletodes 

 by the presence of a branch on the posterior antenna, 

 by the branched mandible-palp, and the elongated 

 inner branch of the first pair of feet.
