gnathopod of a specimen from Spitzbergen which she identified as 

 Pleustes cataphractus, and her figure agrees with the corresponding 

 appendage of the specimen from Grand Manan. The early figures of 

 this species are crude and show very Httle detail and are of little help 

 in these matters. Bate's (1862, pi, 9, figs, g, h, i) figure of the second 

 gnathopod shows a protruding angle bearing two small lobes at the

proximal end of the palm, but his figure of the entire animal is so 

 crude that it bears little resemblance to P. panopla. Sar's figure (1893, 

 pi. 121, fig. p2) does not show a protruding angle, but figures the three 

 groups of spines as occupying slight depressions in the hind margin 

 of the joint. In typical panopla the lower margins of the first four 

 coxal plates are evenly rounding, and the mesosome segments bear 

 median dorsal carinae but no teeth or other protuberances except
