The front is a little more produced in the middle and is more evidently 4-lobed, the outer small lobe being more distinct. The distal groove on the carpus is sometimes distinct, but ill-defined ; in other cases it is lack- ing ; this variation may occur on the two chelae of an individual. A Brazilian specimen (No. 236, Yale Mns.), studied both by Prof. Smith and by Miss Rathbun, has the carapace 21mm long ; 28mm wide ;
