Two adjacent crotchets from a Saldanha specimen. The left one is abnormally slender, x 110. GILLS. There are in each specimen thirteen pairs of gills, the first pair being situated on the seventh segment. In all the specimens the first gill is small, in one of the Saldanha examples the first left gill is represented by a minute tri-lobed tubercle. The successive gills increase gradually in size up to about the tenth, which is usually the largest; the last gill is distinctly smaller than the preceding Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original South African Museum; South African Museum.
