The 10 arms are about 30 mm. long. P, is 6 mm. long, composed of 12 or 13 segments of wliich the first is about as long as broad, the second is about twice as long as broad, the third is about three tunes as long as broad, and the remainder arc somewhat longer. P2 is mm. long, similar to Pi and with the same number of slightl}' shorter segments. P3 and the following pinnules are shorter and slightly stouter with the distal edges of their segments everted and serrate, and with gonads. Distally the pinnules become very slender and increase somewhat in length. The color in alcohol is jn-llowish brown with the i)innules, cirri, and intcramhuhicral areas of the disk white.
