The form of the limbs have been described by Ohlin (1901, p. 291 and pi. xxii, figs. 9, pi. i,, and p. 5); as his figures of these limbs are very small, some have been illustrated in the present paper (Text-fig. 12b, c and g). The second pair of pleopods is modified in the male (Text-fig. 12 A). Distribution. Ohlin's specimen was collected from between Isla Neuva and Navarino, in 30 fathoms of water; specimens have also been collected at Port Harriet, Falkland Islands (Stebbing, 1914), and from rocks at Port Williams, Falkland Islands (Nordenstam, 1933). Specimens in the Discovery collections came from some distance north of Le Maire Strait, South America, and also from waters due north of the Falkland 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 Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (Great Britain); National Institute of Oceanography of Great Britain; Great Britain.
