together, with a prominent subdistal ouler tooth and with inner margin serrate; 
carpus wider than, and ftye-sixths as long as, propodus, with immer margin serrate 
and with two teeth on outer edge; daetylus much Jess than half as long as propodus, 
First peraeopod with rather prominent elosed serrations at distal end of 
outer margin of basis, which is a8 long as the rest of the limb; ischinm with two 
small inner teeth; merns much longer than carpus and with both margins purtly 
serrate; carpus little longer than propodus, with a tooth at middle of length af 
outer margin; dactylus more than half as loug as propodus, 
Second peraeopod a little shorter than first, with the stout basis as long as 
ischium to propodus together; dactylus little more than three-fourths as lone us 
earpns ond much longer than its longest terminal seta, 
Pedunele of uropod carinate, as long as fifth pleon and telsonic somites to- 
rother, twice as Jong as endopod, and with plumose setae on distal half of feehly 
serrate inner margin; endopod half as long again as exopod, with two very m- 
equal terminal spines and an inner row of ten, all eampound (see fiz, 32, irop.): 
exopod with row of spines on outer edge, two unequal terminal spines and a single 
plumose seta on mner margin. 
Jolour, yellow, generously mottled with dark brown on thorax, pleon and all 
exposed appendages. No attempt is made to show the patterning m fle, 31, as 
this would confuse the seulptiring,

Loe, South Australia: St. Vineent Gulf, Brighton, off jetty, 12 fath. (Misses 
Pat. Mawson and L. M, Angel, and K, Sheard, submarine light, Oet., 1941), Type 
in South Australian Musenm, Reg. No. C. 2560, 
The hold sculpture is distinctive, Most if not all of the other Australian apecies 
of Compnylaspis were taken on mud, the type of bottom whieh would be uxpected 
for (he genus, but maple was on clean white sand; there are, however, patches of 
silt here and there in the Gulf and only two males of this species were secured hy 
the eollectors. 
CAMPYLASPTS LATIDACTYLA sp. nov, 
Non-owigerous female, Tntegument well ealcified, coarsely pitted-reticulate 
on carapace; granulate on pedigerons and pleon somites, and on busal joints of 
perseopods and nropods. 
Carapace with a single deep, wide curved furrow on each side, mareined 
above and below with a low fold; broad, a little wider than deep, fully half as 
long again as depth, and less than half of total length of animal; dorgally it is 
moderately arched and does not at all overhang the pedigerous somites posteri- 
orly; seen from above it is broadest across the lower of the lateral folds, which 
are well-separated on the back. Antennal noteh and angle obsolete. Pseydo- 
rostral lobes troneate anteriorly, meeting for a distance equal to length of oelar 
lobe, which is rounded, wider than long, and has three corneal lenses. 
Pedigerous somites all exposed and, like carapace, with 4 fine median carina : 
together they are not much more than two-fifths as long as varapace > dorset) ly 
cathy tumid, but not produced; pleural portions globose, not produced back- 
wards. 
Fifth pleon somite without transverse sulens, barely longer than wide. and 
little longer than telsonie somite, which is dilated laterally towards ihe distal 
end, is wider than long and has the hinder margin broadly rownded and seareely 
produced. 
First joint of peduncle of first antenna nearly half as lig again us seeond 
Which is longer than third, 
Terminal joint of second maxilliped with three spines, subequal in leneth, but 
one meh more slender than the others; penultimate joint with outer distal spine
