The merus of the chelipeds lias a different form, the proximal end being concave instead of convex, etc. It is rather smaller than Edwards' type, which was also young, but longer than wide, while ours is wider than long. On plate xxiii, tig. 2, I have figured a St. Thomas specimen of larger size, also labelled as M. depressus by Miss Rathbun, for com- parison. This is rather larger than Edwards1 type and agrees more nearly with his figure in respect to the form of the marginal teeth. but is otherwise very similar to the undoubted young of J7". hi#]>idns. The carpus of the young of the latter is also spinulous. The larger antennal tooth is shorter and more obtuse than in any of the others 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 Verrill, A.
