28 DR. J. G. DE MAN ON THE PODOPHTHALMOUS 
with small, equal, rounded granules. As in Actea setigera, each 
protogastric region is divided by a longitudinal groove into two 
subequal lobes. All the lobes of the two anterior thirds of the 
upper surface are covered with rather coarse, somewhat conical 
granules, which are even a little larger on the antero-lateral 
regions than on the gastric lobes. The whole upper surface of 
the carapace is covered, moreover, by rather long yellowish hairs. 
The granulated anterior margin of the strongly deflexed, four- 
lobed front is divided by a deep, narrow, median incision into 
two halves, each of which is broadly emarginate, so that the 
frontal margin presents two median, obliquely truncate, large 
lobes, and two lateral, small, dentiform ones, which are prolonged 
towards the basal joint of the external antenne, with which 
they unite. 
As in A. setigera, the antero-lateral margins are very indis- 
tinctly divided into four lobes (besides the external angle of the 
orbit): the three anterior lobes are very broad, the last is very 
small, and all are provided with coarse conical granules equal to 
those of the adjacent antero-lateral regions. As in A. hirsutis- 
sima and A. areolata, the convex hairy, scarcely granular, subhe- 
patie regions present some narrow grooves, which are prolonga- 
tions of the fissures that divide the antero-lateral borders. In 
the male the outer surface of the sternum and of the postabdomen 
appears rather coarsely punctate, and also somewhat hairy, and 
the penultimate joint of the latter is a little longer than broad, 
and a little longer than the terminal segment. 
The arms of the equal chelipedes are almost entirely covered 
by the cephalothorax, and their rounded under surface is some- 
what granular. The outer and upper surface of the wrist is 
eovered with numerous conical granules, which resemble those 
of the antero-lateral regions on the upper surface of the carapace. 
Also the upper and outer surfaces of the hands present similar 
conical granules, which are often arranged in longitudinal rows ; 
but their scarcely convex inner surface appears almost smooth, 
presenting only some few depressed small granules in the 
middle. The fingers of one of the specimens, which are pre- 
served in alcohol, are of a black colour, those of the two other 
individuals are brown; in the specimen described by Krauss 
they presented a somewhat yellowish colour. In this species the 
colour of the fingers does not extend on the surface of the palm; 
in A. setigera it extends on the palm, according to the description
