Figure 60.—lim-iltnm* /UN/I//I/N .• B, anterior ]>art of carapace and appendages enlarged ; 6, distal part of 2d ambulatory leg of left side, more enlarged. After Saussure. See also pi. xxvi. This species is pretty closely allied to I), insignis, but is easily distinguished by the armature of the chela? and second left ambulatory leg. The eye-stalks of the latter are also shorter (see tig. 59), not reaching to the end of the antennal aciculum, and the ocular scales are different in form. In D. insignisthe second left ambulatory leg has no median carina on the outer surface (see fig. 59, and Plate xxvi, 4, 5), the oblique ridges and long rows of small tubercles curve back- ward and meet in "herring-bone" fashion along the convex middle line, on the propodus, but are interrupted by a groove on the clactylus; they are armed with appressed plumose hairs, as in D.
