Front four-dentate, teeth very nearly equal, the outer scarcely more 

 prominent, no median tooth. Eyes of moderate length, not shorter 

 than base of first antennae. First antennae about half as long as 

 carapax, flagella unequal, the smaller ten-jointed. Second antennae 

 five-jointed, first joint very broad, but slightly oblong, third longer 

 than second, fourth and fifth small. Anterior feet sparingly pubes- 

 cent, setose at apex, last joint hardly longer than penult.

Island of Ovalau, Feejee Group; Sandwich Islands; Samoan Group? 



Length, one to one and one-fourth inches. General form, oval. 

 Inner antennae nearly two-thirds as long as carapax; of the basal joints 

 observed, the penult is largest, broadest at apex, and hairy along the 

 apical margin ; the last oblong, in an upper view appearing slender, 

 but wide in profile, and closing below the preceding ; shorter flagel- 

 lum about two-thirds as long as the other, joints ten, slightly oblong, 

 having a few very short hairs at" apex of each ; longer flagellum con- 

 sisting of numerous very short transverse joints, hairs on the infe- 

 rior side longest, yet exceeding but little the diameter of the joints. 

 Second or outer antennae about half as long as inner, not seen in an 

 upper view of the animal; first joint short pubescent on its inner 

 margin ; second, pubescent on outer side. 



Exterior maxillipeds cover completely the mouth, the large joint
