The abdomen differs from that of the preceding species by being less hairy. The antennulae extend to the end of the chephalosome; the month appendages are scarcely different from those of Ch. noiacantha. In the strncture of the natatory legs scarcely any difference was observed between this and the preceding species. The fliird foot is shown in text-fig. 42 e. The only difference between male and female is found in the presence of a fifth pair of legs in the former sex; this pair of legs (text-fig. 42 g) is in most respects like that of the preceding species, but differs by the equal length of the two exopodites as well as in a few minor points. In the structure of the lahntiii and its surroundings no difference of great interest was observed between this species and the preceding ones (cf. PI. W figs I a—b). Y^ (St. IV). vSize of male from Thor St. 183 was 3-46 mm.; anterior division 2"8i mm.; uro- some 065 mm. The body is more slender, and so is the rostrum; the lateral corners are somewhat more robust (text-fig. 43 f). The abdomen consists of three seg- ments as .shown in text-fig. 43 f. The mouth appendages show the usual differences. The exopodite of the first pair of legs .shows no trace of segmentation, but has three well developed Se. The endopodite of the secoftd pair of legs is unsegmented, and the two last segments of the exopodite are fused, bearing 3 vSe and a single glandular pore at the base of vSe 3. Tiie inner margin of the second basipodite of the foitrt/i pair of legs is smooth. The only difference between the male and female is found in the: fifth pair of legs, which, as shown in text-fig. 43 h,
