C.b.; is measured across anterior bases and C.b., across tips of lateral 
epibranchial spines. 
$ 44 is well separated from the other two specimens. (a) All three 
specimens have the carapace setiwith rounded tubercles, but while in 9 45 
and g¢ 46 these are strongly developed and well granulated they are in ¢ 44 
Jess pronounced, and their granulation is inconspicuous ; it follows that the 
latter specimen is much less frough in general appearance than either of 
the other two. 
(b) The orbits have a very different appearance ; in 9 45 and ¢ 46 the 
orbital margin bears a series'of longitudinally elongated granulated tubercles 
which have somewhat the appearance of claws curving over the orbit, 
reminding one of the metal claws by which a jeweller sets a stone in a ring; 
in ¢ 44 there are simply a few granules which do not obscure the large 
triangular emargination of the dorsal margin of the orbit. Running back 
from the apex of this emargination the fissure is well seen in ¢ 44. 
(c) The spines of the cheliped are smooth in g 44; in 2 45 and ¢ 46 
they are, in dorsal view,®iconsiderably granulated. The detail of the 
granulation is as follows: each spine of the inner border of the hand is quite 
covered with granules dorsally, the spines of the outer margin of the hand 
form a series in which there is a gradual transition from the distal one, which 
is granular to its base, to the proximal one, which is granular only at its tip ;
