STALK-EYED CRUSTACEA. 



The rami of the last abdominal appendages are subequal in length, 

 shorter than the telson, spiniilose above and (to a less degree) below. 



Length of a male, 105 mm. ; length of rostrum from tip to anterior gastric 

 groove, 20 mm. ; length of carapace (including rostrum), 44.5 mm. ; length 

 of telson, 18.5 mm. ; length of autennal scale, 11.5 mm.; breadth of antennal 

 scale, 7 mm. 



The egg (from a female 114 mm. long) measures 3 X 2.5 mm. 



This handsome and very distinct species was taken at the following

Rostrum furnished with three pairs of lateral spines, the anterior pair the 

 largest and situate just in front of the eyes, the other t^vo pairs behind the 

 eyes and near the base of the rostrum ; sides of rostrum fringed with long 

 hair in front of the anterior pair of spines. Gastric region separated from 

 the rostrum by a transverse depression. The first or dorsal pair of carinas 

 on the carapace are broken up into laterally compressed, truncate tubercles. 

 Between these crests, at the anterior limit of the gastric area, lie three 

 small tubercles, one median, two lateral and paired ; from the median one 

 a very light carina runs backward along the median line of the gastric 

 region, flanked by two rows ot very faint tubercles. Outside of the dor- 

 .sal carinai the gastric region is irregularly tuberculous. The second carina 

 is explicit only behind the cervical groove, where it is divided by shallow 

 notches into four sections which are hardly prominent enough to be called 

 teeth. The third carina is entire ; near its anterior end is seen a slightly 

 projecting, rounded angle which is not produced so as to form a spine or 

 tooth ; a similar, but still less evident, rounded angle is visible near the 

 middle of the same carina. Only in very young and small individuals do 

 these angles attain to prominence, and even then they do not assume the 

 form of .spines, but end bluntly. The fourth crest is produced to a long,
