no teeth on the inner margin ; the inner one is nearly straight and 

 acute. The marginal spines on the proximal segment of exopodite 

 are five to six in number, of which the first two or three are slender 

 and straight, lying at some distance from one another ; the others are 

 stout, curved forward and diminish gradually iu size backward. The 

 distal segment articulates with the dorsal surface of the proximal seg- 

 ment. The endopodite is somewhat curved outward. Antennules and 

 antennae short, nearly equal in length ; the antennal scales are much 

 shorter than the length of eye, which is equal to 5/13 the length of 

 the carapace. The manus of raptorial limb is beset with a row of 

 minute spinules on the inner margin and near the base.

 uropod, all which are rosy red.
