Kobe, Japan, 50 fathoms (Station 233a), lat. 34° 38' 0" N., long. 135° 1' 0" E. 
(two females). 
The specimens referred to this species have the body more thickly covered with 
yellowish-brown ban- than the types described by Dana and a specimen in the British 
Museum collection, and the under as w T ell as the upper surface of the palm is fringed 
with long hairs.

The figure, which I think it useful to give of this species (which may prove to be a 
variety of Pilumnus (?) squcimosus, de Haan, although differing in the points I have 
indicated in the original description) is from the large type specimen in the collection of 
the British Museum. In the very small Challenger specimen the tubercles of the 
chelipedes, although conical, are less prominent. 
Pilumnus forjicigerus, Stimpson, 1 which is a nearly allied form, dredged at Oosima 
in 30 fathoms, is apparently distinguished by the less numerous tubercles of the palm of 
the smaller chelipede, and also by the smooth carpi of the chelipedes. 
Pilumnus sccibriusculus (?), Adams and White. 
1 Pilumnus scabriusculus, Adams and White, Crust. Zool. H.M.S. “ Samarang,” p. 44, pi. ix. 
fig. 5, 1848. 
Philippines, Samboangan, an adult male, found on the beach. 
In this specimen the interregional sutures of the dorsal surface of the carapace, which 
are very indistinctly indicated in the figure given by Adams and White (and in a specimen 
which I suppose to be typical, in the collection of the British Museum) are obliterated.
