LOCALITY: 1 specimen, Station 2187, Kaki- 
puku Island, Raroia Atoll, Tuamotu Archi- 
pelago, from boring sea urchin; collected by 
J. E. P. Morrison, August 26, 1952. 
DISCUSSION: This specimen, although it 
lacks all of its appendages, has been put in 
this species because it compares so well with 
specimens plainly of this species from the 
same habitat (holes made by the sea urchin 
Echmometra) collected from Aitutake, Cook 
Islands. This species will be discussed in a 
later paper.

narrow but broad at base. Orbital teeth about 
one-third length of rostrum, tips acute. Both 
orbital hoods and rostrum bearing dorsal 
keels, that of the rostrum extending posteri- 
orly from tip to more than two-thirds the 
length of the carapace, those of the orbital 
hoods extending almost to the tip of the hood 
and somewhat shorter than rostral carina. 
Antennular articles short and broad. Stylo- 
cerite reaching to end of second antennular 
article. Scaphocerite broad and rounded, lat- 
eral spine equal in length to rounded an- 
terior portion. 
Large chela lacking. Merus of small chela 
about 4.5 times as long as broad, broadest in 
middle; carpus equal in length and breadth 
to merus, but widest distally; palm a little 
less than half as long as carpus; fingers equal 
in length to palm. 
First carpal article of second legs slightly 
longer than the sum of the four distal articles.
