Kemp: Stomatopod Crustacea 



181 



In the case of the Philippine examples of this variety, therefore, 

 I have attempted to express this difference in the form of a 

 ratio between the length of the carapace (excluding rostrum) 

 and the breadth of the abdomen at the fourth abdominal somite. 

 The results seem to indicate that the variety is on the average 

 broader than the typical form in the proportion of 6 to 5.
