Snabelen (se Fig. 2 a. 2 b) er forholdsvis stor, nsesten 
af Hovedsegmentets Lsengde og betydelig tykkere end dettes 
Halsdel. Den er af regelmaessig cylindrisk Form, med 
Spidsen stumpt tilrundet, og nsesten horizontalt fortilrettet. 
Saxlemmerne (ibid.) er sserdeles kraftigt udviklede. 
Skaftet er forholdsvis tykt, cylindriskt, eller lidt udvidet 
mod Enden, og besat med spredte Haar. Haanden (big. 
2 d) er omtrent af Skaftets Lsengde og udmserket ved den 
smale. nsesten cylindriske Form af Palmen, der er tset be- 
sat med korte Haar. Fingrene er forholdsvis korte, neppe 
syndei’lig mere end halvt saa lange som Palmen, meget 
stserkt chitiniserede. derfor af mprk hornbrun F arve, og 
kun ganske svagt kruminede; de danuer med Palmen en 
temmelig udprseget stump Vinkel. 
Fplerne (Fig. 2 e) er ligeledes forholdsvis kraftigt ud- 
viklede og navnlig udmserkede ved det meget ulige Lmngde- 
forhold af 2det og 3die Led. Medens det lste af disse 
Led er forholdsvis ualmindelig kort, er det andet sserdeles 
stort, mesten dobbelt saa langt og betydelig Isengere end 
det terminate Parti. Sidste Led er ogsaa ualmindelig stort, 
mere end dobbelt saa langt som nsestsidste og successivt 
aismalnende mod Enden. 
De falske Fodder bos Hannen (se Fig. 2 a) er stserkt 
forlsengede. lige udstrakte mere end 1 j» Gang til Isengere 
end Legemet, og bar 4de og navnlig 5te Led sserdeles lange 
og smale samt noget fortykkede i Enden. Det terminate 
Parti er betydelig kortere end 5te Led og liar lste Led 
omtrent saa langt som de 2 folgende tilsammen. Randtoi- 
nerne paa de ydre Led (Fig. 2 f) er smalt lancetformige 
og bar som bos de i det foregaaende omtalte Arter et Par 
stferke basale T fender, medens deres ydre Del er fint saug- 
takket. 
Gaugfodderne (se Fig 2) er meget tynde og stferkt 
forlsengede, omtrent 4 Gange Isengere end Legemet, og kun 
besatte med meget smaa, kun ved stserk ForstOrrelse syn- 
lige Haar. Af Leddene er 2det Hofteled omtrent dobbelt 
saa langt som de 2 ovrige tilsammen. lste Lregled er kun 
ubetydelig bengere end Laarleddet, hvorimod 2det do. er 
i til saa langt og mere end 3 Gange Isengere end det 
terminate Afsm't. Tarsalleddet (se Fig. 2 g) er al smal 
lineser Form og noget varierende i Lsengde, ialmindelighed 
noget Isengere end Fodleddet, sjeldnere omtrent af dettes 
Lrengde eller endog lidt kortere (se Fig. 2 h). Fodleddet 
er temmelig stserkt kruinmet og langs Inderkanten bevsebnet 
med omtrent 6 stserkt forbengede Tomer, bvoraf de 4 in- 
derste er storst. Endekloen er ialmindelighed sserdeles 
stmrk. men kort. ikke synderlig mere end halvt saa lang 
som Fodleddet. Hos enkelte Exemplarer fra sterre Dyb 
er den imidlertid (se Fig. 2 h) kjendelig Isengere og tyn- 
dere. Bikloerne er vel udviklede og oftest omtrent halvt 
saa lange som Endekloen. 
The proboscis (see fig. 2 a, 2 b) is comparatively large, 
almost the length of the cephalic segment, and a good deal 
thicker than the cervical part. ' It has a regular cylindrical 
form, with the point obtusely rounded, and is directed 
almost horizontally forwards. 
The chelifori (ibid.) are particularly powerfully devel- 
oped. The scape is comparatively thick, cylindrical, or a little 
expanded towards the end, and beset with scattered hairs. 
The hand (fig. 2 d) is about the length of the scape, and 
is characterised by the narrow, well-nigh cylindric form oi 
the palm, which is densely beset with short hairs. Ihe 
fingers are comparatively short, scarcely any more than 
half the length of the palm, highly chitinised, and therefore 
of a dark horny-brown colour, and but very gently curved: 
they form along with the palm a rather prominent obtuse 
angle. 
The palpi (fig. 2 e) have likewise a relatively power- 
ful development, and are characterised, in particular, by the 
very unequal longitudinal relations of the 2nd and 3rd joints. 
While the 1 st of these joints is. relatively, unusually short the 
other is exceedingly large, well-nigh twice as long, and much 
longer than the terminal part. The last joint is also un- 
commonly large, more than twice as long as the penulti- 
mate one, and diminishes successively towards the end. 
The false legs in the male (see fig. 2 a) are exceed- 
ingly elongated, straiglitly extended more than half as long 
again as the body, aud have the 4th. and particularly the 
5th joint remarkably long and slender, as v r ell as somew hat 
tumificated at the extremity. The terminal part is a good 
deal shorter than the oth joint, and has the 1st joint about 
as long as tbe 2 following ones taken together. The mar- 
ginal spines on the outer joint (fig. 2 f) are slendei lan- 
ceolate, and have, as in the previously mentioned species, 
a pair of strong basal teeth, while their outer part is 
finely serrate. 
' The ambulatory legs (see fig. 2) are very slender and 
greatly elongated, about 4 times longer than the bodj . and 
only beset with very minute hairs, perceptible alone by the aid 
of a strong magnifier. Of the joints the 2nd coxal joint is 
about double the length of the 2 others taken together. 
The 1st tibial joint is but very little longer than the 
femoral one, whereas the 2nd is '/a longer, and moie than 
3 times the length of the terminal section. The tarsal joint 
(see fig. 2 g) has a slender linear form and varies somewhat 
in length, being as a rule somewhat longer than the propodal 
joint, more rarely about the same length as that joint or even 
somewhat shorter (see fig. 2 h). The propodal joint is rather 
sharply curved, and is armed along the inner edge with about 
6, elongated spines, of which the 4 innermost are the largest. 
The terminal claw is, in general, exceedingly strong but 
short, not much more than half as long as the propodal 
joint. In some specimens from considerable depths it is, 
however, (see fig. 2 li) appreciably longer and slenderer. 
The auxiliary claw r s are well developed, and are. most 
frequently, about half as long as the terminal claw.
