" Rostrum intermediate in form between that of C. robustus and C. 

 Diogenes!' '-Dorsal lines of suture of the carapace in close contiguity. 

 Large claw nearly conical, giving to the species a very peculiar aspect." 



"Fort Pierre, Nebraska ; collected in 1850 by Thaddeus Culvertson." 

 — Girard. 



I have never seen any Cambarus agreeing with the description given 

 by Mr. Girard, and I have not seen a typical specimen of C. Diogenes, 

 the species compared with C. Nebrascensis. I have spoken of all the 

 species of Cambarus with a linear areola under C. mamculatus. None of 

 these several species agrees with the description given of C. Ne- 

 brascensis.
