The post- lateral angles of all the segments, except the first, are produced backw^ard, very slightly in the case of the second, third, and fourth, ])ut becoming gradually more so, until the last two segments show this character very nlarkedl3^ The abdomen is narrower than the thorax. All the segments are visible in entirety, not being covered laterally ])y the last thoracic segment. The terminal segment is triangularly produced, with the apex some- what rounded. The uropoda are short, styliform; the outer branch is the stouter, and ex- tends a little beyond the ex- tremity of the inner branch. Both branches are tipped with a few hairs. Only a single specimen was obtained by the Harriman Alaska Expedition. It was found on tht beach at Seldovia, Cook Inlet. The type is in the , Cat. No. 28TT2.
