The third basipodite of the maxillipeds is i-2 as long as Basp. I—II and three times as long as Ri; the exterior margin of the second basipodite has no trace of lamina, and its fourth lobe bears 3 hairs and a sensory process (fig. 2 c PI. III). The first pair of legs has the articulation between Re I and II indicatad by a faint line anteriorly, and sometimes a small incision laterally; the Se Re I is wanting; the St has the usual.

The fourth pair of legs has the Re III three times as long as wide and the St. has 25 teeth, partly armed with accessory ones; the first basipodite has the usual marginal hairs substituted for by 30—40 stiff thin lamellous bristles, which are placed in about 5 rows along the inner margin, and in 2—3 parallel ones on posterior surface, the more posteriorly the more distally placed.
