(MSS.) from Colon (specimen in a South Australian species ; d, dilatata, stylet on 2nd pleopod) it is very long (fig. 1, c), reaching almost to the end of the telson, as also does the stylet on 2nd pleopod. In the specimen in the British Museum, ex coll. Budde-Lund, bearing Budde-Lund's MS. name " filicornis," from Colon, the distal portion is abruptly narrower than the basal portion (fig. 1, a). In three South African species (fig. 1, d) the penis is triquetral in section, and the flat inner surface can be closely adpressed to that of its fellow ; the distal portion can be spayed outwards by means of a " pseudo- articulation," a thinning of the chitin. As regards the stylet on the 2nd pleopod, the figures of Sars, Hewitt, and Chilton indicate that this appendage also is a character of taxo- nomic importance.
