The selvage is very wide along the anterior andposterior margins of the rostrum and along the jjosterior margin of the rostral incisur —the incisur is quite filled by it — and along the anterior part of the vential margin ofthe shell; it continues along the whole ventral margin of the shell, extending somewhatoutside the edge.

The most striking fact is perhaps the great reduction of the third joint; this joint has, however,no marked tendency to become joined to the neighbouring joints. The posterior bristle of thet
