Diagnosis.—^Rostriim bifurcate for less than half its length. Spines of carapace moderate, spine at lateral angle less than half as long as width of branchial region except in young (16 mm. long and under), where it is just half as long as width of branchial region. Description.—Spines and tubercles of cara- pace very unequal; the principal spines are proportionally much longer in the young than in the old. Gastric tubercles 7, 3 median, the middle one of which may almost disap- pear, and 2 on each side in a longitudinal line; a long cardiac spine, a longer intestinal spine, a still longer spine on the lateral mar- gin at the widest part of the carapace and opposite the narrow anterior border of the cardiac region. Hepatic margin produced in a spine. A curved line of tubercles follows the innermost margin of the branchial region; among the larger tubercles of this - region a (21919), MAxiLLiPED, X triangle of 3 near the gastric region is promi- nent; while a still larger spi
