(lie in the greater and on the angular prominence to the left in the 

 smaller cheliped. There is sometimes another tubercle by the side 

 of the first in the greater cheliped. The larger hand is broad and 

 somewhat depressed, with the outer margin arcuated, acute, and 

 denticulated; its surface is evenly covered with small, equal, sharply 

 prominent but obtuse granules ; fingers generally with corneous tips 

 pretty distinct; dactylus with a series of larger granules above par- 

 allel to its outer margin. The smaller cheliped is like that of E. 

 hir s utilise ulns, but is almost trigonal, with a less distinct longi- 

 tudinal groove ; carpus spinous above ; fingers not twice as long as 

 palm, and not gaping. The ambulatory feet are long, those of the 

 right side overreaching the tip of the right hand; dactyli stout, and 

 somewdiat shorter than the penult joint. Colors : Carapax red. with 

 a median and two or three lateral bluish stripes. The colors on the 

 feet are arranged by rings or bars, instead of vittje; in alcoholic 

 specimens these are blue and red ; fingers of chelipeds bluish. Length 

 usually one inch ; length of anterior region of carapax. 0.25 ; breadth, 

 0.21 inch. 



Found at Kagosima, Simoda, and Hakodadi, in Japan, as well as

 reaching far beyond the tips of the walking feet. Great cheliped 

 much elongated, reaching a little beyond the ambulatory feet, naked 

 except at the base, and everywhere covered above with minute equal 

 spiniform granules ; carpus two-thirds as broad as long, and three- 

 fourths as long as the hand, including the fingers ; hand convex, a 

 little broader than the carpus, and tapering toward the fingers ; fin-
