B. Upper surface of hands coarsely granulate, armed only with three short 
stout spines on inner margin behind the dactyl. Distal half of 
eye-stalks about same width as cornea, proximal half abruptly en- 
larged, about half again as wide. Rostriform tooth of front reach- 
ing to tips of eye scales or slightly beyond, much more prominent, 
larger and more acute than lateral teeth. (Known only from San 
Pedro.)

II. Eye-stalks long and slender, about as long as or slightly longer than greatest 
width of anterior portion of carapace. Rostriform tooth of front longer, 
more prominent, and more acute than lateral teeth, reaching to or beyond 
bases of eye scales. Hands much as in P. turgidus. (Not known north 
of Monterey.)

Characters.—Hands only moderately broad, about one-third or more than one- 
third longer than wide, outer margin but slightly bowed out; immovable finger 
at base subequal with or but slightly wider than movable finger, upper surface of 
hands strongly spined with numerous dark-tipped spines. Eye-stalks about three- 
fourths as long as width of anterior portion of carapace. Antennal flagella 
sparsely haired. Teeth of front subequal, rostriform tooth reaching about to 
bases of eye scales.

Survey specimens ranged between 10 and 20 mm. 
Color.—Yellowish, obscured by the hirsute covering; eye peduncles and internal 
antennae with a longitudinal streak of crimson (Stimpson). 
Type Locality.—Puget Sound. 
Distribution.—From British Columbia to San Diego, California, to a depth of 
254 fathoms. 
Biological Survey of San Francisco Bay.—Paguristes turgidus was 
dredged at three outside stations, D 5788, 5789, 5806, ranging in 
depth from 13 to 68 fathoms, with an accompanying temperature 
range of 9.3° to 11.1° C and a salinity range of 34.0 to 34.3.
