36 ME. L. A. BOREADAILE ON CEUSTACEANS [Jail, 18, 



prominences, and with two lateral carinse, each produced into a 

 spine ; telson with three rounded dorsal longitudinal prominences 

 not bearing spines, and with four narrow elongated carinse posterior 

 to the rounded prominences ; lateral and intermediate marginal 

 spines of the telson obsolete, submedians long and each tipped 

 with a minute movable spinule." 



Colour (in alcohol) a uniform dark olive-green. 



Length of the single ( c? ) specimen IS mm. from tip of rostrum 

 to bottom of groove between submedian spines of telson. 



This species closely resembles G. cMrayra, from which, how- 

 ever, it differs in the absence of the intermediate spines of the 

 telson and in the consequently more elongated shape of that 

 segment.

5. GONODACTXLUS GLABROUS BrOoks. 



Gonodactylus glabrous, Brooks, ' Challenger ' iStomatopoda, p. 62, 

 pi. xiv. fig. 5, pi. XV. figs. 7, 9 (1886). 



Gonodactylus qraphurus, de Man, Arch. f. Naturges., Jahrg. 53, 

 Bd. i. p. 573 (1887). 



Gonodactylus glaber, Pocock, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. 6, xi, p. 474 

 (1893). 



Pocock regards the name of this species as due to a misspelling 

 in the original description, but, as it appears several times in 

 Brooks's article and is always spelt in the same May, this would 

 seem not to be the case.
