Fig. 5, Progonocythere sp. nov. X 250. Figs. 6 (X300), 7 (X200), Progonocythere bajociana sp. nov. Type B In a large number of ostracod genera the antennal scar is distinctly cresentic in outline, generally with the opening of the crescent directed anteriorly (Text-fig. 10). Possibly related is the condition where the antennal scar is directed obliquely antero- dorsally, a condition somewhat akin to type D described below. The crescentic antennal scar is not considered to be related to the kidney-shaped scar of the previous type (A). A mandibular support spot (" mandibular stutzfleck " of Triebel) is commonly associated with this muscle scar type, and further research may prove this association to be significant. 2r. :;ri01v a**"*88 â m.
