og har Formen af en stump Forhoining, uden Spor af 
Pigment eller Lindser. Forfra eller bagfra seet ( Fig. 2 d) 
viser den sig jevnt afrundet i Enden, med et lidet tand- 
formigt Fremspring til hver Side. 
Snabelen (se Fig. 2 c) er af sserdeles betydelig Stor- 
relse, omtrent saa lang soin de 3 fnrste Segmenter tilsam- 
men, og er altid stserkt ombpiet mod Bugsiden. Den er, 
som hos foregaaen.de Slsegt, bev;egeligt artieuleret til et 
fra Hovedsegmontet fortil udgaaende Ska ft ; men dette Shaft 
(se Fig. 2 b) er her s;er deles kort og kan dertor let forbi- 
sees. Snabelen er stserkt indknebet ved Basis og udvidet 
paa Midten, nsesten af pseredannet Form, og har en svag 
Indsnariug i sit basale Parti, medens det terminale Parti 
jevnt afsmalnes mod den stumpt afkuttede Spids. I Tvmr- 
snit er Snabelen (se Fig. 2 f) nsesten trekantet, idet det 
dorsale Lsengdesegment er stserkt, nsesten tagforraigt hvselvet, 
medens de 2 Sidesegmenter stoder sammen ventralt i samme 
Plan. Mundaabningen (se Fig. 2 e) er begrsendset at 3 
distincte Lseber, hver med et lidet knudeformigt Fremspring 
i Midten. 
Saxlemmerne (se Fig. 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, Fig. 2 g) ei 
meget smaa og rudimentsere, neppe halvt saa lange som 
Hovedsegmentet, med hvilket de synes at vsere ubevsegeligt 
forbundne. Skaftet er enleddet, cylindriskt og ganske svagt 
krummet, samt, foruden de ovcralt paa. Kroppen forekom- 
mendc mikroskopiske Smaatorner, besat med en Del tem- 
melig smaa og simple Burster. Haanden (Fig. 2 h) er 
yderst liden, af triangulser Form og ender med et indad- 
rettet stumpt Hjorne. Fortil har den en uregelmsessigt 
tandet Knude, der er forbundet med Haanden ved et tynd- 
lmdet Parti og forestiller et Rudiment af den bevsegelige 
* Finger. Hos yngre Individer, der dog paa det riser meste 
har opnaaet sin definitive Storrelse er Haanden (se F ig. 
2 i, 2 k), som hos foregaaende Slsegt, fuldkommen cheli- 
form, med stserkt krummede, kloformige Fingre, uden Side- 
tsender. 
Folerne (se Fig. 2 a— c, Fig. 2 1) er af meget be- 
tydelig Lseugde, idet de, lige udstrakte, nsesten er saa 
lange som hele Degemet, naar Snabelen fraiegnes. I sin 
B vaming stemmer de forovrigt temmelig uoie overens med 
samme hos foregaaende Slaegt og er, som hos denne, tyde- 
ligt 1 0-leddede og stserkt zigzag-formigt bpiede. Af Led- 
dene er ogsaa her de 2 fprste meget korte, hvorimod 2det 
og ote Led er stserkt forlmngede og indbyrdes nsesten af 
ens Lsengde. Endedelen er omtrent saa lang som 4de 
Led og har 2det Led betydelig lsengere end de ovrige. 
De falske Fodder (se Fig. 2 c, Fig. 2 in) er stserkt 
forlsengede og spinkle, lige udstrakte vcl saa lange som 
Legemet, naar Snabelen fraregnes, og bestaar af 10 vel 
begrsendsede Led. Hos Hannen (Fig. 2 c) er 4de og 5te 
Led noget bredere end hos Hunnen (Fig. 2 m) og besatte 
med omboiede tornformige Borster. Endedelen (se Fig. 
2 n) er nsesten saa lang som de 2 foregaaende Led til- 
sammen og har Iste Led stserkt forlsenget. Tornerne paa 
de folgende Led (Fig. 2 o) viser et lignende Udseende som 
anteriorly and has the form of a blunt prominence, without 
trace of pigment or lenses. Viewed anteriorly or posteriorly, 
(fig. d) it shews itself to be evenly rounded at the end, 
with a small dentiform prominence on each side. 
The proboscis (see fig. 2 c) is of particularly large 
size, about as long as the 3 first segments together, and 
is always strongly incurvated towards the ventral side. It 
is, as in the preceding genus, flexibly articulated to a scape 
issuing from the front of the cephalic segment; but this 
scape (see fig. 2 b) is here particularly short and may 
therefore be easily unobserved. The proboscis is greatly 
constricted at the base and expanded at the middle, 
almost piriform, and has a faint constriction in its basal 
portion, whilst the terminal portion tapers evenly towards 
the bluntly truncated point. In transversal sections the 
proboscis (see fig. 2 f) is almost trigonal, as the dorsal 
longitudinal segment is strongly, almost roof-like, arcuate, 
whilst the 2 lateral segments unite veutrally in the same 
plane. The oral aperture (see fig. 2 e) is bordered by 3 
distinct lips , each with a small nodular prominence in 
the middle. 
The chelifori (see fig. 2 a, 2 b, 2 c, fig. 2 g) are 
very small and rudimentary, scarcely half as long as the 
cephalic segment, with which they appear to be immobily 
connected. The scape is single-jointed, cylindrical, and 
quite faintly bent, and is, also, beset with, besides the 
microscopical spines that are everywhere present on the 
trunk, a number of pretty small and simple bristles. The 
hand (tig. 2 h) is extremely small, triangular in form, and 
terminates in a blunt corner directed inwards. Anteriorly 
it has an irregularly dentated nodule which is connected 
to the hand by a membranous part and represents a rudi- 
ment of the mobile finger. In young individuals which 
have, however, attained, approximately, their definite size, 
the hand is (see fig. 2 i, 2 k), as in the preceding genus, 
perfectly cheliform, with strongly bent claw-shaped fingers, 
without lateral teeth. 
The palpi (see fig. 2 a— c, fig. ’2 1) are of very con- 
siderable length, as they, straightly extended, are, exclud- 
ing the proboscis, almost as long as the entire body. In 
their structure they correspond otherwise, pretty closely 
with the same organs in the preceding genus, and are, as 
in it, distinctly 10-jointed, and strongly bent in zig-zag form. 
Of the joints the 2 first are also here very short, while 
the 2nd and 5tli joints are greatly elongated and are 
mutually about uniform in length. The terminal pgrt is 
about as long as the 4th joint and has the 2nd joint 
considerably longer than the others. 
The false legs (see fig. 2 c, fig. 2 m) are strongly 
elongated and slender, straightly extended, rather longer 
than the body when the proboscis is deducted, and consist 
of 10 well marked joints. In the male (fig. 2 c) the 4th 
and 5tli joints are somewhat broader than in the female 
(fig. 2 m), and are beset with recurvate aculeifonn bristles. 
The terminal part (see fig. 2 n) is almost as long as the 
2 preceding joints taken together, and has the 1st joint 
greatly elongated. The spines on the succeeding joints
