In all the specimens the caudal appendages are ratherstout and do not differ greatly in length from the peduncleof the sixth cirrus. They seem to consist of from four to sixsegments, but, as Gruvel notes, some of the seven or eightsegments which he counts are very indistinct. The carina isby no means always, as Pilsbry states, squarely truncate below; in many specimeus ,it is rounded or even, as in theholotype of Hoeks S. eximium, distinctly angled. In noneof our specimens is there any trace of a penis.
