CRUSTACEA 297 
Carapace triangular, broader behind, depressed or slightly 
convex, almost entirely covered with minute short hairs; lateral 
margins slightly arched and bearing a series of about ten small 
spines varying somewhat in size; front prominent, triangular, 
slightly concave above, lateral margins with three or four spines, 
extremity rounded, also bearing a few small spines. Chelipeds 
elongated, somewhat pubescent, granulous above, merus with 
four or five prominent sharp spines on the upper inner margin; 
propod with a series of sharp spines and a row of hairs on the 
outer margin extending to the tip of the fixed finger and two 
rows of granules on the upper surface, inner margin also 
granular; dactyl with a row of granules on the upper surface, 
under surface hairy; fingers not quite meeting at the base when 
closed. Ambulatory legs with the meral joints compressed, 
upper margin with sharp spines and hairs. 
Length of carapace 8mm, greatest breadth 8mm.

The collection contained numerous specimens of this species 
from Stations 2, 5, 20, 22, and 89. They agree well with 
Henderson’s description which was drawn up from a single 
imperfect specimen taken by the Challenger Expedition, even 
the red markings he mentions on the legs are still evident in 
most of the specimens. The dactyls of the second and third legs 
are convex on the outer side while the inner surface forms a 
shallow groove extending along the whole length of the dactyl. 
The specimens are all much larger than Henderson’s type 
specimen, thus one of them has the following dimensions :— 
Length of carapace 3lmm., length of cheliped 68mm., length 
3rd right leg 35mm., length of eye stalk 12mm., while another 
with the carapace 33mm. long has the chelipeds ana 3rd right 
leg still longer and the chelipeds particularly broad. 
E. intermedius Lenz from French Pass is, I think, undoubt- 
edly the same as this species.
