FROM THE INDIAN REGION. 489 
edge granular. Palps hairy but without teeth, with the excep- 
tion of some very small ones on the patelle and tibie. Patelle 
long and enlarged towards their extremities. Inwardly there is 
a long slender apophysis, as long as the patelle are broad. Tibiz 
five times as long as broad. The legs are very long and slender ; 
the femora spinous. 
F. [=12 (53), I1=24 (120), IJI=10 (45), IV=6 (70) mm. 
Body 5-7 mm. Second joint of the antenna 1} mm. long. 
Colour white with some few dark spots. The procursusfrontales, 
tubercle, and articulations are yellowish-brown. A longitudinal 
broad band from the first spine to the end of the abdomen is 
indistinctly brown. The top of the spines is black, the coxe and 
genital plate brown, the ventral segments yellow with white spots 
on the side, the point of coxa 4 with a yeilow spot in front. 
The antenne and palps are yellow, the legs brown. 
One full-grown female from “‘ Large Nicobar.” 
Another specimen from Little Nicobar has no patellar 
apophysis. The procursus frontales are smaller. The colour 
is bluish-white, the longitudinal band yellow. The segments of 
the scutum are marked by a row of depressed dark spots. 
The last specimen, also from Little Nicobar, is a little 
different from the other two. Instead of the frontal spine 
there is a short apophysis, armed with three short pointed teeth. 
Beneath this apophysis there is a short pointed tooth. The 
scutum is finely granular. Apophysis of the patella short. 
The femora of the palps bear an inner row of granules. 
Tubercle black. 
This beautiful and odd species was taken by the Danish 
* Galathea’ Expedition. 
GAGRELLA NOBILIS, n. sp. 
© (?). Cephalothorax almost square; the scutum bears one 
thorn; the area between the ocular tubercle and the spine is 
almost plane. The upperside is densely and finely granular with 
the exception of the tubercle, spme, and free dorsal segment. 
The free ventral segments are smooth; cox partly smooth, 
partly beset with large distinct granules. The lamina frontalis is 
undeveloped; the procursus are small, narrow, well separated, 
and armed with few teeth. The tubercle is very characteristic ; 
seen from the side it is somewhat higher than long, its upperside 
iy almost flat; the front side sloping and higher than the back.
