quarti parium paullo longiores; dactyli longi. Segmentum secundum et tertium uri libera, 

 non coalita. Anguli postiei segmenti ultimi non prpducti. Pedunculi pedum uri ramis 

 longiores (?). 



The head is not rostrate, longer than the first two pereional segments. The eyes are middle-sized 

 The flagellum of the first pair of antennas is anteriorly rounded, as long as the head and 

 the first two pereional segments. The pereiopoda are short not hirsute. The femora of 

 the first four pairs are narrow, cylindrical, those of the last three pairs dilated. The 

 tibiae of the third and fourth pairs are not tumid; the dactyli are very short. The fifth 

 and sixth pairs are somewhat shorter than the third and fourth pairs, the dactyli are long. 

 The second and third ural segment are free, not coalesced; the hinder corners of the last 

 segment are not produced. The peduncles of the uropoda are longer than the rami (?). 



Colour. »Reddish orange, spotted with black». 



Length. 9 mm. 



Hab. Banff, the coast of Scotland. (SpENCE Bate and Westwood)

As the »specific character" given by Spence Bate and Westwood (1. c. p. 524) is 

 applicable to several of the known Vibilia?, the diagnose here is taken from the "generic 

 character" of the authors compared with the drawing. Only some few other characteristics 

 have to be added. 



The first two pairs of pereiopoda are subequal in length. The third and fourth 

 pairs are a third longer, the metacarpi fringed with fine rows of short teeth. The seventh 

 pair are scarcely as long as half the sixth. 



The uropoda have the outer margins of the rami smooth, the inner margins fringed 

 with short strong spines.
