V. y«»nii^ i , from Bermuda, about ^ nat. size. A younji' specimen (Xo. 4058, lig. 40) in life had bright colors : the carapace was bright reddish brown, varied with paler patcnes ; the spines and tubercles were light brown ; chela- pink with fine black spots ; legs red, banded with pale yellow ; ventral parts pale blue and bluish white. (C. S. V.) In large individuals the gastric area is prominent, wide, with convex sides and defined by a wide and deep groove ; the groove bounding the cardiac area is Avide, but shallower. Our larger Bermuda specimen has many unequal conical spines and tubercles on the surface, but between them the surface is smooth.
