chelipeds are much shorter, the difference in length being chiefly in the 

 arm ; and the fingers though well hollowed out at tip are not so hoof- 

 like.

Length of carapace nearly three-quarters the breadth. 



The regions are all convex and well defined, and the gastric and 

 branchio-hepatic regions are subdivided into convex lobules, the surface 

 of which is somewhat dented transversely. 



The antero-lateral border is cut into four (excluding the external 

 angle of the orbit) procurved teeth, the last two of which are claw-like. 



The front projects strongly, and is divided into two dorsally-convex 

 lobes, of which the free edge may either be cut obliquely inwards, or be 

 so excised as to give the front a four- pronged look. 



The orbital margin has, in its outer half, three grooves separating 

 three blunt teeth : the tooth at the lower inner angle does not come in 

 contact with the eave of the orbit. 



Chelipeds in the male not much more than half again as loner as 

 the carapace : upper and anterior borders of arm hairy ; upper surface 

 of wrist nodular, with two teeth (one large) at the inner angle ; upper 

 outer surface of hand with rather irregular longitudinal series of little 

 nodules and granules ; dactyl us fluted, the ridges being crenulated. 



Legs very shaggy, the hairs almost concealing some lines of sharp 

 granules or spinules on the propodite and dactylus. 



In the Indian Museum is a specimen from the Persian Gulf (be- 

 sides one from Samoa).
