41. Echimomaia hispida, n. sp. Fig. 13. 
Diagnosis. —Large spines of carapace, nine in number, arranged as follows: two 
postocular, two at the sides of the gastric region, each joined by a ridge to the 
postocular of the same side, two on the branchial regions, one median on the hinder 
part of the gastric region, two on the cardiac region. A somewhat smaller spine on 
the first abdominal segment, and three smaller still on the second. On each hepatic 
region, postocular succeeded by a smaller tooth. On each branchial region a row of 
about fifteen small regular teeth. Cheliped of male reaching middle of propodite of first 
walking leg ; its fingers shorter than palm, very slightly gaping, irregularly toothed ; palm 
with six rows of spines—two above, two below, one on inner and one on outer surface. 
Wrist about half length of palm, bearing a number of spines; arm with three rows of 
spines on inner side and a spine above near end. Meropodite of first walking leg 
similarly provided, but with smaller spines; those on earpopodite and propodite 
similarly placed, but still smaller ; dactylopodite about half length of propodite, smooth. 
Third walking leg smooth, except for a spine above at end of meropodite. Second and 
fourth walking leg wanting in both specimens. 
Length of longer specimen, 16 mm.

Ill the three specimens (one male and two female) the rostrum is straight, its 
spines diverging a little at the tip, the spines on the branchial region rather small, the 
propodites of the walking legs longer than the carpopodites and moderately dilated. 
The male belongs to Miers’ form A.

44. Paramithrax ( Leptomithrax ) afjinis, n. sp. Fig. 14. 
A female specimen dredged in 100 fathoms north of New Zealand, resembles 
P. ( P) lough nanus, Filhol, 1885, but differs from it in the following respects 
(i) The cheliped is barely as long as the first walking leg, its wrist is smooth, 
and its arm less tubereulate than in Filhol’s species. These may be merely 
sexual differences.
