Paddle legs like chelipeds, margins of joints by articulations salmon, 
proximal half of paddle and adjacent joint white, distal half sort of rav 
sienna X gallstone yellow; transparent in case of white & yellow of paddle. 
Under parts whitish. 
Fisherman brought me 2 well developed olfersl and female of same surely 
and a Jamaicensei= soft. The two females were of a general Vandyke brown 
color, the one overlaid with bistre or olive, the other speckled underneath 
with madder brown. These darker colors were general and mottled, under all 
being a sort of clay X cream buff color which showed through in hazy lines 
on carapace, making it appear a little streaky, especially somites, extending 
down on sides about to top line of epimera. The bistre 
spec, had a blue, black (dark) green large cheliped, the 
other black brown had black rest and small chela, 
Vandyke brown, legs of both more or less transparent 
of •ginwfryYKwgy r fine suggestions of faint marine blue spotting in bands of 
second speckled prouts brown. 
T? more russet in color, marked like males, legs almost white with 
' I 
few dark mottlings of brown on anterior face, large chela mottled with 
larger patches of marine blue (light) on inner and outer margins and fingers 
are a faint pea (bluish) green ground, portions of somites 1 & 3 behind clear 
area much darker than any other part of body, and blackish. 
The Jamaicense has long stripes of marine blue, black-bottle green, others 
of buff, but lower lateral carapace bright yellow, marked like red brown shrimp 
of other day, except that below yellow on sides was pea green for length of 
body and abdomen. Legs china blue, smaller chela prune purple (light or pansy 
purple) with tips of fingers and basal half of fixed one whitish at spot of 
white inside at distal end of carpus and proximal end, too, a smaller spot.
