HORRID PARTHENOPE. 
Shell with the tubercles eaten-impressed ; legs spiny; hands 
and wrists verrucated ; abdomen and breast carious. 
Inhabits the Asiatic ocean. 
Linné describes this species as having but eight legs, but 
he has correctly referred to Rumph and Petiver, for the 
figures quoted above; he also quotes figures of Lithodes 
maja, given in vol. iii. tab. 18, fig. 10, and in tab. 22, 
fig. 1, of Seba’s Thesaurus; and likewise to tab. 22, fig. 
2— 3, of the same volume, which represent two views of a 
species with which I am unacquainted, but which is totally 
distinct from P. horrida. 
The first two false references given by Linné, in some 
measure excuse Pennant for having given Lithodes maja 
(Cancer maja, Linn.) for the Cancer Horridus of Linné, 
although he might readily have discovered his error, had 
he examined the Hehe deserted, © Thorace obtusé 
aculeato; cauda cariosa.’
