Specimens from the third, fifth, and eighth stations are all of comparatively small size and have reddish brown eyes, while in specimens from the other stations, whether large or small, the eyes are black. A specimen from the third station, with the rostrum perfect, shows that arrangement of its den- ticulation which Bate describes and figures for his Japanese species N. longirostris, the dorsal teeth very numerous, to the rear closely packed, but widely separated forward, where they are accompanied by five ventral teeth. This specimen was. Ovum, and larvae from ova of Nematocarcinus, sp. 83 mm. in total length, the carapace 34 mm., inclusive of the rostrum, which measured 18 mm. Another specimen with carapace 30 mm. long has a rostrum 14 mm. in length. This specimen also has five ventral teeth, the dorsal numbering 36. A specimen from the eighth station has a carapace 32 mm. long, of which only 12 mm. belong to the rostrum. The dorsal teeth are 19, the tooth most to the rear being clearly separate from the 8 immediately in advance of it. There are 4 ventral teeth nearly corresponding in position to the.
