Hub. Station 233, oft' Andamans, 185 fath. 



Practically identical in form with M. Simpsoni, Marshall, 

 from the North Sia*. It, however, is less glossy and 

 exhihits rather more distinct lines of growth, and down the 

 hinder sl()[)c a few very short epidermal l)ristlcs are ohserv- 

 ahle. Under a strong lens microscopic radiating striae are 

 visible, especially at the anterior end. The above arc 

 probably not the full dimensions attained by this species.
