 One hundred and sixty specimens of this species were obtained. 



The carapace in the largest male measures 9 by 8 -5 mm., and 

 in the largest female 8 by 8 mm. In the former the chelse ai-e 

 slightly longer than in the latter. 



In a few of the adult females the tubercles on the carapace are 

 low and obscure ; in the males and young they are well developed, 

 and agree with those depicted in Haswell's figure on plate 6, fig. 3. 



The granules on the carapace are somewhat variable ; in a few 

 of the larger females they are quite flat ; in the males and young 

 they are often prominent and bead-like, especially on the front, 

 hepatic, and the elevation portions of the branchial and central 

 regions ; on the antero-lateral margins they fi^equently become 

 subspiniform.
