Niciiollr — New blind Ampliipod from Victoria. 
In tlie fii-Kt inaxilljie (Text, fig. -I, .’ia), too, tlieve is a marked 
agreement between tlie two species, tlie Inner lobe in N, ohrieni 
being, lu)^vever, slightly more' rounded with the setose fringe ex- 
tending along l)oth iuiuM' and outer )narg'ins and the apical plumose 
setae sliorter. A similar difTeianice bidweeii the palp of O])posito 
sides occurs in both species. In the second maxillae (Text, lig. 4'' 
the only |>oints of nlf-^‘er<nice observed are that tlu' external Sjdnule 
on the outer ])late of this a])pendage in N. saenceri is replaced in 
A', obriciii by a long plumose seta and that the fring(‘ of setae 
alojLg the mesial margin of tlie inner jdate in the former is broken 
up in the latter inlo a series of small tufts. 
The maxilli])edes (PI. IX., Fig. .'i and Text, fig. 2} show' the inner 
ami outi'r ])lates as a litth* longei-, relatively to the ]>al]), than 
a|ipears, from Sayce ’s figuiag to be the case in N. spenccri. Upon 
the ijiuer plate, plumose setae are fe\V(‘r and the apex is more

rounded; the outer plate has the series of spine-teeth extended 
jiroximally by long stout sjtines; the fringing setae on the inner 
margin of tlie second Jt)int of the i)al]) a])]iear distinct!)^ longer, 
the third Joint of the palp relatively shorter and stouter than in 
A. spcnceri. Fach of the tufts of setae, springing from the outer 
distal end of the Joints of the ]>alp, is represented in N. ohrieni 
by but a single seta.
