Hovedet er forholdsvis lidet og oventil bevsebnet mod 
Par korte, men tydelige Pigge. lste Kropssegment 01 
kortere end de 4 derpaa fplgende og af ssedvanlig Form;

-det Segment har den smdvanlige lendannede Form og viser 
oventil 3 Par stmrkt fremtradende Pigge, hvoraf navnlig 
det midterste udmserker sig ved betydelig Lsengde ; desuden 
sees over Basis af 2det Fodpar en stserk skjsevt fortilrettet 
lateral Pig. De g fplgende Segmenter, der omtrent er af 
samme Storrelse soui 2det, bar ligeledes over Basis at 
^jellobladene og til liver Side af Brystposen en stserk lat- 
eral Pig samt desuden en dobbelt Rad af hoie tilspidsede 
^%ge langs Rygsiden, 4 Par paa hvert Segment. 5te Seg- 
U1 ent er-noget smalere end de 2 foregaaendo og langs Ryg- 
s iden bevaebnet med en Del mere eller mindre tremtise- 
dende Pigge. De 2 sidste Kropssegmenter er som ssed- 
'anlig ganske korte, og hvert forsynetmed 4 i en Tvserrad 
staa ende Pigge, 2 dorsale og 2 laterale. 
Bagkroppen (sml. Pig. 5 c) er mindre rudimentser end 
ho s f'oregaaende Slsegt og bestaar af 2 tydelige Segmenter, 
d'ert forsynet med et Par Lemmer. 
Dinene er ganske smaa, runde, med som det synes 
l duldkominent udviklede Svnselementer. 
lste Par Folero er tynde og forlamgede, mesten at 
hele Legemets Liengde. Af Skaftets Led er 2det lmngst 
3 die kengere samt betydelig tyndore end lste. Svoben

^ det Par Folere er meget smaa og tynde, neppe mere 
eild l / 3 saa lange som lste Par, samt mangier ganske de 
st'Brke Batsteknipper, der udmserker disse Folere hos Ar- 
tl ‘inc af foregaaende Slsegt. 
Kindbakkerne (Fig. 5 a) ligner meget i sin Bygning 
S ' Ull ® e bos foregaaende Slsegt, men skiller sig vsesentlig 
1 11 v 'ed, at de er forsynede med cn vel udviklet 3-leddet Palpe. 
I de ovrige Munddeles Bygning er derimod ingeu vse- 
Sl ntlig Afvigelse fra samme hos Caprella at notere. 
lste Fodpar (Fig. 5 b ) er ligeledes temmelig overens- 
j’l'-inniende bygget, skjpndt noget mindre underssetsigt end

-dot Fodpar (se Fig. 5) er kraftigt udviklet, med 
a salleddet ganske smalt og simpelt cylindriskt, Haanden

and armed above with a definite number of comparatively 
large acute spikes, in regular arrangement, and so disposed, 
that the largest constitute a double series extending along 
the back. 
The head is comparatively small, and furnished above 
with a pair of short but distinct spikes. The 1st body- 
segment is shorter than the 4 succeeding ones, and of the 
usual form; above, it exhibits 3 pairs of rather small 
acute protuberances. The 2nd segment has the usual Pisi- 
form shape, and above exhibits 3 pairs of very prominently 
developed spikes, of which in particular the median is 
characterized by considerable length; besides, over the 
base of the 2nd pair of legs is seen a strong, antorior- 
directed lateral spike. The 2 succeeding segments, about 
equal in size to the 2nd, have likewise above the base oi 
the branchial scales and on either side of the marsupium 
a strong lateral spike, as also a double series of high 
acute spikes along the dorsal surface, 4 pairs on eitliei 
segment. The 5th segment is a trifle more slender than 
the 2 preceding ones, and armed along the dorsal surface 
with a number of more or less prominent spikes. The 2 
last body-segments are, as usual, quite short, and each 
furnished with 4 spikes, arranged transversally, 2 dorsal and 
2 lateral. . . 
The abdominal division of the body (see fig. 5 c) is 
less rudimentary than in the preceding genus, and consists 
of 2 distinct segments, each provided with a pair ot limbs. 
The eyes are quite small, round, and, it would ap- 
pear, with incompletely developed visual elements. 
The 1st pair of antenna; are slender and elongate, 
well-nigh equalling the body in length. Of the joints of 
the peduncle, the 2nd is longest, and the 3rd longer than 
the 1st, as also considerably more slender. The flagellum 
is somewhat, though not much, shorter than the peduncle, 
and consists of close upon 20 short, with delicate bristles 
beset joints. 
The 2nd pair of antenna; are very small and slender, 
scarcely more than a third the length of the 1st pair, 
and want altogether the strong fascicles of bristles char- 
acterizing these antenna; in the species ot the preceding 
” enUS 'The mandibles (fig. 5 o) resemble closely in structure 
those of the preceding genus, but differ essentially in hav- 
ing a well-developed three-jointed palp. 
In the structure of the other oral appendages, no im- 
portant deviation from that in Caprella has to be recorded. 
The 1st pair of logs (fig. 5 6) are likewise compara- 
tively similar in structure, though somewhat less thickset 
than is the case with the corresponding pair in the 2 pre- 
viously described Caprella;. 
The 2nd pair of legs (fig. 5) are powerfully developed, 
vith the basal joint quite slender and simple cylindric, the 
Uan d exceedingly large, equal in length to all the other joints 
taken together, oblong in form, with the posterior margin 
sharpened and divided into 3 lanceolate lappets, of which the 
median is the largest. Of the 2 incisions bounded by these
