Tergum with straight margins except the occludent, whichmay be gently curved, carii al margin one-third to one-half aslong as the occludent. Carina narrow, evenly curved, sides 372 Dr. W. T. Caiman on expanding in lower part, so that the margin is convex or evenbluntly angled, basal margin more or less everted, straight orgently concave as seen from the side, in line or forming aneven curve with base of scutum ; septum notched in themiddle, lateral lobes more or less prominent in side-view. Peduncle less than half as long as capitulum, with obscurecarinal keel; attached almost at margins of scuta and carina. In place of filamentary appendages the dorsal surface of Fig. Megalasma (Glyptelasma) hamatum, sp. n. Body, from the side, showing dorsal hooks, filamentary appendage, andcaudal appendages. the prosoma bears, about the middle of its length, a pair ofshort hook-like processes, turned forwards, rather more firmlychitinized than the surrounding integument; a short distancein front of these is a pair of low rounded swellings. Close tothe base of the first cirrus on each side is a small appendageof varying length, sometimes reduced to a mere papilla, andin one specimen apparently absent. Rami of first cirrus with Barnacles of the Genus Megalasma. 373 from 9/11 to 10/12 segments. Caudal appendages veryshort, not more than one-fifth as long as peduncle of sixthcirri. Fiff. 7.
