Closely resembles the last, but (inter alia) with a shorter 

 rostrum, a longer funicle, and an ovate scutellum. 



Pelephictts. 



( Cry pt orhy nchinse . ) 



nostrum elongatum, arcuatum ; scrohes medianse, obHquse. Funi- 

 culus articulis quatuor ultimis submoniliformibus ; clava ob- 

 longa, subcylindrica, tomentosa. Oculi rotundati, subtenuiter 

 granulati. Prothorax transversus, apice tubulatus, lateribus 

 postice subito verticalis, lobis ocularibus prominulis. Scutellum 

 elevatum, punctiforme. Elytra cordiformia, basi prothorace 

 hand latiora, apice acuminata. Pedes ut in Odosyllide. Pima 

 pectoralis adcoxas intermedias protensa, apice subaperta. Ab- 

 domen segmento secundo ampliato. Processus intercoxalis 

 angustus. 



One of the peculiarities of this genus is the sudden deflection 

 of the sides of the prothorax posteriorly, and in consequence pre- 

 senting a sharp angle at the part, below which the side is deeply 

 excavated, apparently for the reception of the anterior femora. 

 In other respects it differs from Odosyllis in the cylindrical form 

 of the club of the antennae, and in the longer pectoral canal nearly 

 open at the apex.
