Uropod, peduncle apically subquadrangular, ventral surface with a slight transverse ridge, outer ramus short, extending half-way to apex of peduncle, inner ramus very short. Up to 13 x 6*5 mm. In alcohol, faded to a uniform cream. Locality.—Cape Province : Mossel Bay (W. F. P.). This species and the next one are distinguished from all other South African species by the transverse ridges on lower surface of the pleurae of pleon segments (3) 4 and 5, and the peduncle of uropod. Diploexochus hypsinephes n. sp. (Fig. 68, d, e.) Differing from limenites only in having a distinct groove on peraeon segment 1, extending half-way along margin, the internal tooth on segment 2 stronger, nearer the middle of epimeron, and apically subacute. Up to 15 x 7-5 mm. Slaty-grey, more or less mottled with pale cream. Localities.—Cape Province : Zwartberg Range, at Seven Weeks Poort Berg (Ladismith) ; and the Zwartberg Pass (Prince Albert), 4000-5000 ft. (K. H. B., 1928, 1929)..
