//ci/«>/y^;<' q/" Amiiiotliea caroliiieiisi-s, Leach. i'll 



not quite as tall as tlie fii.st dorsal process, subcyliiiJrical, 

 with a t'Diiical apex ; eyes ilidtiuct, pigmented, the anterior 

 pair tlie l;irger. 



AI'domen horizontal, laterally compressed towards the tip, 

 with a distinct hasal tubercle, its length one-third of the 

 di:^tance from its base to the trout. 



Prvbos<is as long as trunk and abdomen together, with a 

 faint Constriction at less than one-third of its length from the 

 base, the distal jioitiou rounded-trihedral in section, nai- 

 rowing sligiitly t ) the broadly truncate tip. 



Chtlophoiex extending to one-tiiird of lefiglh of proboscis, 

 scape a litile longer than chela, fingers strongly arched, much 

 longer than the palm. 



Palps (only seven out of the nine segments shown in 

 Leach's figure are preserved) slender, second segment one- 

 half as long as fourth, the three following subequal. 



Ociyers with ten segments distinct. 



Lejs. First coxa a little shorter than third and more than 

 half as long as second. Femur equal to first tibia and four- 

 fittiis as long as second. Tarsus and propodus together 

 nearly half as long as second tibia. Propodus sligiitly curved, 

 with two or three large spines on the proximal jiart and one 

 smaller n<'ar the distal end of the inner edge. Claw about 

 half as long as propodus ; auxiliaries tive-eighths as long as 

 main claw. 



The dorsal surface of the body and the whole surface of 

 the appendages closely set with minute spinules. On the 

 li'g'^, the spinules show here and there a tendency towards 

 arrangement in longitudinal series, but they are not divided 

 into definite bands by sharply marked bare spaces.
