Dimensions. Type 3g, length 8:4 mm., width 12 mm, 
Closely related to Actea spinosissima Borradaile*, from which 
it differs in the character of its tubercles and spines rather than 
in their position. The tubercles of the dorsal surface are broad 
and arcuate as in spinosissima, but are thicker and less flattened 
and less petaloid, those toward the lateral margins being acorn- 
shaped. This is also the form of the five antero-lateral spines 
behind the orbit; in spinosissima they are long spines. The 
projections of the front are simply crenulations, not spines nor 
spiniform teeth. Spines of chelipeds short, stout, acorn-shaped, 
and directed a little forward as are those on the carapace. The 
spines on the legs are longer than on the chelipeds and are stout 
and subacute, not slender and elongate as in spinosissima. 
Although the five specimens are all larger than any specimen 
of spinosissima yet recorded, there is no indication of intergrading 
from one species to the other. 
GLYPTOXANTHUS CYMBIFER, sp.n. (Pls. J., I. figs. 6, 7.) 
Type-locality. Monte Bello Islands ; no special locality given : 
2 3 (lis type), 1 9. 
Dimensions. Type $, length of carapace 10°6 mm., width of 
same 17mm. Paratype 9, length of carapace 12°7 mm., width 
of same 20 mm. 
The carapace is closely covered with small bead granules, and 
is deeply areolated; the protogastric regions are divided into two 
oblong lobules by a longitudinal furrow; the branchial region 
bears about six lobules of irregular size, the two next the inner 
angle of the region being connected by a posterior elevation. 
There are four small tuberculiform teeth on the lateral margins
