2. Appendages. — The walking limbs are comparatively short, and of a less 
robust type than in most genera o£ Oniscidfe. 
d. The Metasome. — The segments of the metasome are crowded together, 
the 1st and 2nd being scarcely visible in a dorsal view and without pleural 
plates. Of the remaining three the last is the smallest. The pleural plates 
are of a similar type to those of the last three metasomatic segments. There 
are a pair of join-ted spines on each of the last three segments. 
1. Uropoda. — The uropoda extend beyond the telson. The basal plate is 
somewhat oval in shape and has a fold on its posterior side. Only a single 
appendage appears to be present, which is slightly longer than the width of 
the basal plate and terminates in a strong curved spine. I take this appendage 
to represent the exopodite. 
2. Telson. — The telson is comparatively small, somewhat triangular in 
shape, and terminating in an obtuse point. It bears a pair of 3-jointed 
spines and a median papilla anteriorly and between the bases of the spines. 
V. Affinities. 
The genus Calmanesia appears to be widely separated from any known 
genus, and at present we must leave it without attempting to relegate it to 
its proper position in the classification.
