Inner lobe, from the inner side. longer but bent much forwards. The proximal process somewhat longer than the terminal,without any secon- dary branch beyond the middle, while the distal part is somewhat expanded, forming a plate which is much lon- ger than broad, with the terminal margin rounded and only very feebly emarginate somewhat from the broadly rounded end. Lateral process without tooth on the distal part. — Length of one of the largest specimens 22mm. This species is distributed in the temperate and boreal North Pacific ; it is very common at Japan. The specimens referred in 1894 by Ortmann to E. splendens Dana belong certainly to E. pacifica. (210).
