. Fig. 8. Terminal segments of third leg of: a. Colosseiidets glacialis, Hodgson, paratype. b. C. drakei, Caiman, holotype (both x 11). Meastirements {mm.) Length of proboscis Greatest diameter of proboscis (at apex) Length of trunk ... Width across lateral processes Length of abdomen Third right leg; Coxa Femur ... First tibia Second tibia Tarsus ... Propodus Claw Remarks. These specimens are most nearly related to C glacialis, Hodgson, but differ from that species in the following respects: (i) they are of more slender build without the spinules on body and legs characteristic of C. glaciali

Propodus Claw Remarks. These specimens are most nearly related to C glacialis, Hodgson, but differ from that species in the following respects: (i) they are of more slender build without the spinules on body and legs characteristic of C. glacialis, (2) the tarsus is shorter, the claw longer and there are no spines on the legs (cf. Fig. 8 a and b), (3) the terminal joints of the palp are narrower, the sixth segment is twice as long as wide, the seventh nearly as long as and the two distal ones rather longer than the sixth, the setae on the palp are much shorter (cf. Fig. 4 c and d); (4) the principal spines on the ovigers are thin, broadened and serrate distally, recalling those of C. frigida and C. scoresbii (cf. Fig. 7 a-/and^); (5) the abdomen is shorter and broader. 6-3 5-5 1-4 1-4 6-5 6-0 4-5 4-0 17 1-5 3-8 3-6 3-0 II-O i-i 9-6 9-5 8-0 4-2 3-8 4-0 3-5 37 3-5
