Dardanus sculp tipes, RathbUn, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., XXVI, 



Note : Abundant near Misaki. Larger specimens of the specie; agree with P. megislós in 

 proportions of some parts, f. i., the eyestalk is larger than the antennular peduncle, 

 and the greatest breadth of the propoditc of third left leg is equal to about two- fifths of 

 the length of same.

Note : A single male from Wakayama, Prov. Kit, is in the Sci. Coll. Mus. In addition to 

 all the characters pointed out by Alccck. this specimen shows the following points: 

 (I) Eye takes up a third part of the terminal joint of eyestalk; (2) eyestalk distinctly 

 broadened distally ; (3) the greatest breadth of carapace across the branchial region is 

 equal to about eight-tenths of the length of same in the median line ; and (4) the 

 U-shaped suture line in front of the cervical groove is somewhat divergent anteriorly. 



Carapace little depressed, its greatest breadth across branchial 

 region equal to about seven-eighths the length in the median line ; 

 with tufts of bristles in the proximity of anterior and antero-lateral

 cervical groove somewhat closing anteriorly, in- 

 stead of diverging.

 Natural size. 



Eyestalks depressed, broadened distally, shorter 

 than anterior border of carapace, longer than 

 antennal but shorter than antennular peduncles. 

 The corneal area takes up nearly a third part of 

 the terminal joint of eyestalk. Ophthalmic scales 

 setose and spinulose at apex, widely separated 

 from each other.
