In one specimen (No. 0-100) the arms of the anterior bifur- 

 cation of the median carina of the carapace, instead of being 

 separated throughout their length, are joined together in front 

 of the small middorsal pit. Otherwise all the specimens are 

 quite typical.

The specimen is not in good condition. According to the 

 label the color in life was "red with a brown tinge and with 

 cream-colored dots and cream-colored bars transversely on cara- 

 pace and on telson extending on to uropods." A pair of dark 

 eyespots circumscribed by a paler shade can be detected 

 on the carapace. 



Apart from the fact that the rostrum is rather more sharply 

 pointed apically and that the submedian carinse of the telson 

 are not fully formed, there is no structural difference between 

 this specimen and the examples in the Indian Museum.
