The maxillipeds (7, 6, 5)sliow clearly a biramous condition, while the maxilla? (4, 3) retain considerable of the original phyllopod character. In the man- dibles (3) there is always a strong basal joint, the edge of which serves as a jaw, while this may bear additional joints, \he pappus. Behind the month are a pair of scales, the paragnaths or mefastoma, formerly regarded as appendages. The antennfe are usually distinguished from their size as antennae (second pair) and antenniilie (first paii-, flg. 404). They have larfe Ijasal portions, which in the anteunuhe bear two many-jointed flagella,.
