FROM THE FAROE CHANNEL. 5 
somewhat resembles Laophonte curticauda, Boeck, in general 
appearance, except that the second segment of the abdomen is 
rather wider than the segment which precedes it, and also than 
those which follow (PI. 1. fig. 9). 
The rostrum, which is moderately broad, is bluntly rounded at 
the apex, and scarcely reaches to the end of the first joint of 
the antennules. 
The antennules are about as long as the cephalothoracic 
segment, seven-jointed, and moderately setiferous; the first 
three jomts are subequal, and together are equal to fully one and 
a half times the entire length of the remaining four joints; the 
fourth and fifth joints are rather shorter than the sixth and 
seventh, and the fourth is furnished with a sensory filament 
Geir 2a tic. i). 
The penultimate joints of the antenne are each provided with 
a small uniarticulate secondary appendage which bears a few 
plumose sete (PI. 2. fig. 2). 
The mandibles (Pl. 2. fig. 3) are of moderate size, but the palp 
is very small and uniarticulate. 
The other mouth-organs resemble those of eee curtt- 
cauda, but the second maxillipeds (Pl. 1. fig.11) are propor- 
tionally rather stouter. 
The first pair of thoracic feet are somewhat similar to those of 
the same species, but the joints of the outer branches are sub- 
equal in length (PI. 1. fig. 12). The second, third, and fourth 
pairs have the inner branches short and two-jointed, the first 
joints being small; the outer branches are moderately elongatid. 
The drawing (Pl. 2. fig. 4) represents the fourth pair. 
In the fifth pair, which are foliaceous, the basal joints have a 
somewhat triangular outline, but the inner portion is produced. 
so as to reach to near the middle of the secondary joints; the 
inner margin of the produced part is provided with apparently 
three moderately stout sete in addition to a small seta at the 
apex. The secondary joints are subcylindrical; they are fully 
twice as long as broad, and are each furnished with about five 
‘small setz on the distal half of the outer margin and apex, as 
shown in the drawing (Pl. 2. fig. 5). 
The fureal joints are about as long as the last abdominal 
segment. 
The male appears to differ very little from the female, except 
in the following particulars:—The antennules, as shown in the
