Here follow the charaeteristics which are to be found in the generic and specific 

 descriptions given by H. Milne Edwards. 



The head is very large, less elevated than the perseon, and almost entirely occupied 

 by the eyes. 



The (first pair of) antenna; are very short, subulate, much resembling the second 

 pair of antennce in the female of Hyperia. 



The person is not inflated in the middle as in Hyperia Latreillei, but gradually 

 diminishing in size backward. The first segment is very narrow, and almost entirely con- 

 cealed by the second. 



The first two pairs of peroeopoda are very small, compressed, similar in shape. The 

 carpal process of the first pair is very small, that of the second pair is long, almost as 

 long as the metacarpus. The dactylus is curved. 



The third and fourth pairs are longer than the fifth and sixth. 



The peduncles of the pleopoda are longer and more slender than in Hyperia; the 

 rami are almost linear. 



The urus resembles that in Hyperia, but the rami of the uropoda are elongate- 

 lanceolote, acute.
