The present species is characterized mainly by the hand of pereiopod 2, and by the presence of teeth on the urosome segments, viz., 3 on segment 1 and 2 on segment 2. A few species have pereiopod 2 not very different from the present species, but with urosome segments dorsally smooth. They are as follows: E. enrypodii Barnard, Discovery Report, vol. 5, 1932, p. 231, fig. (Falklands). Differs in having defining angle of palm in pereiopod 2 minute crenulated and rounded. ?£. scissimanus Barnard, Ann. S. Afr. Mus., vol. 20, 1925, p. 361, pi. 34 fig. 15 (South Africa, 230 m). Several other species have, like these, two teeth on palm of pereiopod 2^, but shape and size of the two teeth are rather different from those of E. abyssalis. The following species have dorsal teeth on urosome segments 1 and 2: E. anomalus Chevreux, Bull. Soc. Zool. France, vol. 50, 1925, p. 381 (Senegal). 1 + 1 teeth1). E. crassipes (Haswell) Stebbing. Tierwelt. vol. 21, 1906, p. 612 (East Australia). 3 + 0 teeth1). E. dentatus (Chevreux). Gammaropsis dentata Chevreux, Res. Camp. Sci. Monaco, vol. 16, 1900, p. 93, pi. 12 fig. 1 (Azores). 3 + 2 teeth. Mil teeth = 1 tooth mi urosome segment 1. 1 tooth on seg- ment 2. - 3- it teeth = 3 teeth on urosome segment 1. 0 mi seg- ment 2, etc. E. dimorphus Barnard, Discovery Rep., vol. 5, 1932, p. 244, figs.
