HaALE—AUSTRALIAN CUMACEA 215 
PROCAMPYLASPIS BOLDIDA Sp. OV, 
Qoigerous fomele. Lutegument well caledied; form as tn genotype. 
Oarapace aboul two-fifths ef total length, with shagreen-like surface owing 
fo Homerous very small rough tibereles or spines; seen from the side il is pro- 
ninently arched above, forms a decided angle posterior to ooular lobe and is 
markedly tumid al posterior end; (here i¢ a single prominent median, conical 
Lubevele just behind middle of leugth. Antennal noteh widely open and angie 
very obtuse, Ocular lobe narrow; no corneal lenses; pscudorostral sutures 
ankylosed ; lobes reaching a little beyond eye-lobe, 
First pedigeroue somite with a closely applied lamella, the bifid apex 
of whieh just overlaps posterior margin of carapace medianly; second somite 
not at all elevated and without projections or lamella. 
Pleo somites a liltls irregular bit unarmed, suecessively increasing in leneth 
to fil'tlis telsonie somite Widest in posterior half (as wide as long) somewhat angu- 
larly roimded, little prodneed posteriorly and ahout four-fifths as long as fifth 
pleon somite; the latter 1s slightly but distinctly widened in posterior third, where 
ib is one-fourth as wide again as breadth al posterior margin. 
Wiest maxilliped with terminal joint rather wide, one-third as long as penul- 
timate, with a single apical seta anc with two dentiform projections on outer edge 
(see figure for other details), 
In the daetylus of the seeond maxilliped imimediately posterior to the lurve 
faleate apieal tooth there is a stont but very short spine, at the base of whieh is u 
seta of about the same length; this is followed by three large inner teeth, subeqtal 
in length to the apical tooth of the joint and of about the sume diameter; the most 
auterior Of these has a faint suture near the base and the next has ao insignificant 
aceessory proximal tooth, the posterior spine is equal in Jength to the faleate and 
of the daetylns and is a little longer than the other inner spines. 
Third maxillipeds with basis almost as long as rest of limb; isehinm short, 
with an juner tooth; merus widest distally, where it is barely half as broad as 
its length, and bears a slender outstanding spine on outer margin; there is no 
iiher armature ow the joint ; carpns less han half as long as meris, with a spine 
a outer margin and another on the inner; propodus without armature, more 
than balt os long us merus, wand half as long again as dactylus. 
Pires) pereopod wiarmed, with basis not muelh more than two-thirds as 
long a8 rest of limb (as long as ischium, merns and carpus together) ; ischinim sub- 
eqnal io length to propodus and longer than ¢arpus which slightly exceeds the 
merus i lengths daetylus halt as Jong as propodus, 
Seaond peraeopod with basis stout, somewhat longer than ischium to prapo- 
dng together; merns distinctly more than half as long as carpus; daectylus sub- 
equal in lenrih to carpus and about four times as long as propodus. 
Pedinele of utopod two and one-fittth times as long as telsonie somites em 
(lopod equal in leneth to last-named and a little longer than exopod, with twa 
spmes on mer margin and two very unequal terminal spines. 
Colour (when cleaned) dull yellow, without arty markings, 
Leneth, 45 mm, 
Adwt male. Curapace acarly one-third of total length; surface with small 
clear-cut retieulation ; posteriorly and near lower edge is a row of denticles; on 
the back the median conical tubercle is not quite as high as im female and there 
is aw pair of spines near the hinder margin, Antennal notch widely open and an- 
tennal angle more prominent and less obtuse than in female. 
Mirst pedigerous somite withoul lamina; seeond to Afth somites each with a 
paiy ef dorsal spines, and with one or two spines on expanded pleural portions.
