Canadian Arctic Expedition, 1913-18 



Anterior antennae 9-jointed, seven-tenths the length of the cephalosome 

 measured in the middle line. Posterior antennae with Re two-jointed (Fig. 39); 

 the number and arrangement of setae is subject to variation, as is the relative 

 length of the two joints.

 Base of posterior antenna showing the two-jointed Re. 



The mandible has the structure shown in Fig. 40, both rami of the palp 

 being one-jointed; the outer ramus is the smaller; on the other mandible of 

 this individual instead of the two si of Ri shown in the figure, there was a group 

 of three setae as in Tigriopus (Sars).

The maxilla was like that of H. chelifer, with two long plumose setae behind 

 the masticatory claws on B 1, as figured by Sars; below the claws (observed 

 in the male) were two subequal setae with distended proximal portions and 

 long-plumed attenuated distal portions; B2 bifid, the proximal inner smaller 

 lobe carrying two equal plumose setae, the upper larger lobe, a group of setae; 

 Ri and Re both tri-setose. 



First maxilliped (mp 1): B 1 with three setigerous digitiform inner lobes 

 (Li); B 2 is the distal digitiform segment of the appendage, carrying a sub-

distal group of four setae and terminating in the claw or dactylus of the appen- 

 dage; above the claw, and parallel with it, there is a plumose seta, and another 

 smaller seta below it (Fig. 41).
