244: DR. J. G. DE MAN ON THE PODOPHTHALMOUS 
at its internal side. The remainder of the carpopodite is unarmed, 
with the exception of a few small tufts of hairs along its upper 
margin, and its outer and inner surfaces. The hands are com- 
paratively elongate, being twice and a half as long as broad. 
The fingers are once and a third as long as the palm. The palm 
presents a few small spinules along the inner margin of its upper 
surface, but is covered otherwise only with some small piliferous 
lines. The smooth, flattened, and slightly hairy inner surface of 
the palm makes a right angle with the upper surface ; the latter 
passes gradually into the outer surface, which presents some 
tufts of hairs, especially along its rounded under margin. The 
under surface of the palm is smooth and alsoa little hairy. The 
fingers have large, spoon-like excavated, horny tips of a black 
colour, meeting along their whole length, whereas the fingers 
have a small hiatus between them when closed. The mobile 
finger is covered on its upper margin with some spinules, a little 
larger than those of the palm, and arranged in two or three 
longitudinal rows. The immobile finger also presents similar, 
somewhat smaller spinules on its upper margin and on its outer 
surface; but the fingers are unarmed below. The fingers are 
everywhere rather hairy, the yellow hairs being mostly arranged 
in longitudinal rows of small transverse tufts. Hach finger is 
armed at its base with two small, acute, conical teeth, situated 
near the upper margin of the internal cutting-surface, behind 
one another; the basal tooth, however, is much smaller than the 
other. The cutting-surfaces are smooth, presenting only a few 
small tufts of hairs. 
The legs resemble those of Clibanarius longitarsis. Those of 
the second and third pairs are rather thinly clad with yellow 
hairs along their upper and under margins and at their 
articulations. The basal joints are unarmed, and the mero- 
podites present only a small acute spine at the distal ends of 
the under margins of their outer surfaces. The carpopodites 
are armed with a single, small, acute spine at the distal ends of 
their upper margins. The slender propodites are quite unarmed ; 
those of the right legs are a little longer than those of the left. 
The slender, slightly arcuate dactylopodites are nearly once and 
a half as long as the propodites, when measured along their 
upper margins, and they terminate in short, black, acute points. 
They present a smooth, narrow, longitudinal ridge along their 
upper margins, and the distal halves of their under margins are
