L. 6 mm. OS Portugal, lat. 38o 7' N., depth 1036 m; Davis Strait, lat. 59" 10' N., depth 3200 m; off Capri, depths 950—li>00 m; lat. 40" 16' 50" N., long BT^ 05' 15" W., depth 2322 m. 13. L. kalluropus Stebb. 1912 L. k., T. Stebbing in: Ann. S. Afr. Mus., I).156 t. 57 (9). Seemingly near to L. longirostris (nr. 12). but with the telsonic segment less produced, the produced portion much instead of little shorter than the base, the proportions and armature of the uropods also differing. Pedigerous segment 5 with procurved ventral spines as in the other species, and the 1- jointed accessory flagellum of antenna 1 as long as 1^* joint of the 4 in the principal. Peraeopods 1—4 with 2°^ joint distally narrowed. In peraeopods 2—5 the S"^ joint is obscure. In the 2'"'^ pair the much spined 7*^ joint is as long as the 5**1 and fully twice the 6*^. Peduncle of the uropods a little longer than the 1^*^ joint of the endo- pod, which is more than thrice as long as the 2"'* joint, its medial margin fringed with more than 20 serrate spines following 2 or 3 that are setiform, the lateral margin carrying 8 feathered spines; the 2""^ joint has 8 serrate spinules on the medial margin; the exopod is a little shorter than 1^*^ joint of endopod, and has various elongate spines.
