is almost continuous. The two postero-distal bristles on this joint, which are situated close
to each other, are similar to those of the preceding species. Proximally of these there are
generally — as in the majority of species belonging to this sub-family that are dealt with in
this work — two bristles, generally of equal length and of about the same type and length as
the two former ones, one situated somewhat proximally of the other; in a few cases, however,
three such bristles were observed, of which the two proximal ones were situated close to each
other, and sometimes only one such bristle was developed. End joint: This has, in addition
to the six bristles observed on the preceding species, a very short bristle, situated
posteri-orlv; (of the same type as, for instance, in C. (Vargula) norvegica; cf. fag. 12 of this species).
The six bristles have about the same development as these bristles in the preceding species,
apart from the faet that the two anterior ones and the two posterior ones are relatively somewhat,
though rather slightly, longer. The three claws have a few weak posterior secondary teeth
proximally of the middle, the longest anterior and posterior bristles have short, weak posterior
hairs or are almost bare. The pilosity of this limb is similar to that of the preceding species.
Maxilla: — Protopodite: The first endite (fig. 8) has twelve rather powerful
subequal, moderately long bristles, furnished with abundant stifî, long secondary bristles placed
close together; onlv the outer bristle has comparatively few of these: on the three inner bristles
these secondary blistles continue right to the point of the bristle, on the others they stop a short
distance from the point; of the latter bristles four are trifurcated distally, five have a strong,
simple point and are with or without powerful distal secondary teeth. The second endite (fig. 9)
has seven moderately long bristles, which decrease somewhat in length the farther inward they
are placed; they all have at the middle a moderate number of long, sti ff secondary bristles,
and five of them have, in addition, more or less strong distal secondary teeth. The third endite
(fig. 10) is similarly furnished distally with seven bristles of moderate length, the exterior ones
somewhat longer than the interior ones; all except the innermost, which has short and
exceed-ingly fine hairs, have a moderate number of long, stifî secondary brist les at the middle; the
two outer ones are finely pectinated distally, the third outer one is somewhat more strongly
pectinated distally, the rest, as far as I could see, smooth distally. The bristle situated proximally
on the outside of the third endite has short and fine hairs and is not quite as long as the outside
of this process. The dorso-distal bristle on the coxale is about as long as the outer bristle on
the third endite. Of the three bristles that are situated on the boundary between the basale
and the first endopodite joint the one situated close to the exopodite is about as long as the
distal bristles of the exopodite and is plumose in the middle, the one on the anterior edge of the
palp is somewhat shorter than the dorso-distal bristle on the coxale, the one on the inside of
the palp is somewhat shorter still; the two last-mentioned bristles have short, fine hairs or are
almost naked. Exopodite: Of its three bristles the distal one has short, fine hairs, the
two others are densely plumous; one specimen had all three densely plumose. The two distal
ones are somewhat longer, the proximal one somewhat shorter, than the exopodite.
Endopodite (fig. 11): First joint: This has two rather long bristles distally on the anterior edge,
the anterior one somewhat longer than the posterior one, both with short, fine hairs or almost
bare. Distally on the posterior edge there are three bristles, one rather long, the two others
