Napoli, ser. 1, vol. 3, 1889, p. 210 (part), not MacLeay, 1838. Diagnosis.—Male abdominal, appendages of first pair with ex- tremity gradually tapering and sharp pointed. Carapace roughened antero-laterally with tubercles each formed of a row of two or more granules. Frontal lobes (between antennae) divided each into a broad, transverse, inner lobe and a very small outer lobule. Tuber- cles of proximal row on wrist not dissimilar to remaining tubercles. Description.—C&rap&ce of moderate width, regions clearly marked on anterior two-thirds; postorbital grooves very d^ep; a transverse broken granulated line in front of epigastric lobes, another similar line across protogastric and hepatic lobes; a line of tu- bercles parallel to antero-lateral margins; these last armed with five or six spiniform teeth behind the orbital tooth. Front wide, deflexed, and divided into four lobes; the two median wider and more advanced than the lateral, truncate, with a finely granulated border; lateral lobes very small, close to the median pair. The so-called outer frontal lobe which lies alongside the inner suborbital tooth, pertains to the upper orbital border. Inner orbital suture very sinuous; below it a line of large tubercles. Chelipeds strong, swollen, unequal. Hand covered with large, round, flattened, squamiforrn tubercles, more elevated on the small hand than on the large; the major dactylus has a large rounded tooth at its base. Wrist covered with less prominent tube
