infi CRUSTACEA. 



196 



Plate 11, fig. 1, female, enlarged four diameters. 

 Cape Verdes? Atlantic Ocean. 



Length of carapax, three and one-fourth lines; breadth, five lines; 

 ratio of length to breadth, 1 : 1'6. The male specimen in the collec- 

 tions has the surface smooth, while in the two females the lens dis- 

 closes a fine granulation over the anterior part of the surface. The 

 channeling is neat and distinct ; moreover, in the female the arm and 

 hand above are areolate, rugose and granulous, and in the male only 

 corrugate. The anterolateral margin is thin. Behind the posterior 

 tooth, the margin is arcuate but entire. The abdomen of the female 

 is obtuse at extremity, or very slightly emarginate; that of the male 

 is narrow, as in A. tomentosus. 



It is possible that the male specimen belongs to a distinct species; 

 yet the character of the anterolateral margin, and the general pro- 

 portions of the body and also of the hands, are the same in the two.
