Beskrivelse. Legemet er (se PI. XVI, Fig. 7) smalt 
og forlaenget, nmsten cylindriskt, mod rund Ryg og meget 
smaa Epimerer. 
Hovedet er noget mindre opsvulmet end hos de ovrige 
bekjondte Arter og fortil afkuttet, med Sidehjornerne smalt 
udtrukne. 
lste Par Epimerer forkenger sig fortil til en skarpt til- 
spidset horizontal Flig. De 3 folgende Par er derimod 
nedentil jevnt tilrundede og aftager hurtigt i Storrelse bagtil. 
In gen af dem opnaar selve Kroppens lloide. 
3 die Bagkropssegments Sideplader danner ikke bagtil 
nogen Vinkel, men er her smalt tilrundede. 
Af 0ine er intetsomhelst Spor at opdage. 
lste Par Folere var paa det eneste foreliggende Ex- 
emplar defecte, idet kun Basalleddet or i Behold. Dette 
er forholdsvis storre end hos de ovrige Arter og overgaar 
selv kjcndeligt Hovedet i Lmngde. 
2det Par Folei’e er omtrent halvt saa lange som Le- 
gemet og har Skaftets 2 sidste Led smalt cylindriske og 
nsesten af ens Lamgde. Svoben er forholdsvis kort, 8-leddet. 
Mundregionen or nedentil strnrkt fremspringende og 
forstorstedelen ubedaekket til Siderne. 
lste Fodpar er saerdeles kraftigt udviklet, med den 
ydrc Del (Haanden og Carpus) stserkt fortrykket. Basal- 
leddet er derimod forholdsvis smalere end hos de ovrige 
Arter og ligesom den Ovrige Del af Foden kun sparsomt 
borstebesat. Haanden er temmelig opblsest, af oval Form, 
noget lamgerc end det foregaaende Led og lidt afsmalnende 
mod Enden, dor er nmsten tvasrt afkuttet, med [forholdsvis 
kort Griberand; ved Enden af denne sidste Andes en dyb 
og smal Bugt eller Indsnit, der bagtil er begramdset af et 
tilspidset tandformigt Fremspring. 
2det Fodpar er betydelig svagere bygget og har Haan- 
den meget smal og neppe hengere end det foregaaende Led. 
De paa dette Fodpar fmstede Borster er ganske korte. 
3die og 4de Fodpar har sidste Led stasrkt forlsenget 
og smalt, hvorimod Endekloen er meget liden. 
De 3 bagerste Fodpar tiltager hurtigt i Lamgde bagtil 
og har Hofteleddet kun lidet udvidet. 
Halofodderne aftager i Storrelse bagtil. Paa de 2 
forreste Par forkenger Stammen sig i Enden foran Grenene 
til en stank dolkformig Fortsats; paa sidste Par er Stam- 
men derimod simpel. Grenene er paa alle simpelt lancet- 
formige, uden tydelige Tomer eller Borster. 
Halevedhamget er ganske kort, men tykt, rorformigt 
og uden Indsnit. 
Dyrets Farve er gulagtig, med morkere Smaapletter. 
Lsengden af det undersogte Exemplar er % mm . 
Description. — The body (see PI. XVI, fig. 7) is 
slender and elongate, well-nigh cylindric, with the back 
round anil very small epimera. 
The head occurs a trifle loss swollen than in the other 
known species, as also truncate anteriorly, with the lateral 
corners slenderly produced. 
The 1st pair of epimera are prolonged anteriorly to 
an acute, horizontal lappet. The 3 succeeding pairs, on 
the other hand, are evenly rounded off below, and diminish 
rapidly in size posteriorly. Xot one of them attains the 
height of the body. 
The lateral plates of the 3rd abdominal segment do 
not form posteriorly an angle, but are slenderly rounded 
off. 
Of eyes, not the sligthest trace can be detected. 
The 1st pair of antennae in the only specimen taken, 
were detective, the basal joint only remaining. This was 
comparatively larger than the corresponding articulation in 
the other species, and exceeded oven appreciably the head 
in length. 
The 2nd pair of antennas are about half as long as 
the body, and have the la,st 2 joints of the peduncle slender- 
cylindrie, and well-nigh equal in length. The flagellum 
is comparatively short, and eight-jointed. 
The buccal region juts out prominently below, in 
greater part uncovered at the sides. 
The 1st pair of legs are most powerfully developed, 
with the outer part (hand and carpus) greatly inspissated. 
The basal joint, on the other hand, is comparatively more 
slender than in the other species, and, like the remaining 
portion ot the leg, but sparingly furnished with bristles. 
I he hand appears rather tumid, has an oval form, is a 
trifle longer than the preceding joint, and tapers a little 
toward the extremity, which is almost vertically truncate, 
with comparatively a short palmar margin; at the end of 
the latter, occurs a deep and narrow sinus, posteriorly de- 
fined by an acute, dentiform projection. 
The 2nd pair of legs are much feebler in structure! 
and have the hand very narrow, as also scarcely longer 
than the preceding joint. The bristles attached to this 
pair of legs are exceedingly short. 
The 3rd and [4th pair of legs have the last joint 
greatly elongated, and slender, whereas the terminal claw 
is very small. 
The 3 posterior [pairs of legs increase rapidly in length 
hindwards, and have the basal joint but little expanded. 
I he caudal stylets diminish in size posteriorly. On 
the 2 foremost pairs, the stem is prolonged at the extremity, 
anterior to the branches, as a strong, mucroniform process ; 
on the last pair, however, it is simple. The branches on 
all are simple, without distinct spines or bristles. 
The telson is quite short, but thick, tubular, and 
without any incision. 
Colour of animal yellowish, relieved with darkish 
specks. 
Length of the specimen examined 6 mm .
