CheJophore. Scape, which bears several long and numerous short, fine setae, nearly four times as long as wide distally. Fingers of chela slightly longer than palm, each armed with 35-45 spinules according to the size of the specimen; setose pad extending half-way along immovable finger. Palp. Two terminal segments together approximately equal to, and third four-fifths of, second segment (Table VI).

Two terminal segments together approximately equal to, and third four-fifths of, second segment (Table VI). Oviger. Terminal claw half as long as tenth segment, armed with 10-13 spinules; total number of denticulate spines 30-36. Segments 4-6 in the proportions i-68 :2-22 : i, segment 5 short, rather curved and distinctly clubbed distally. The termino-lateral C. Fig. 27. Segments 4-6 of male oviger of: a. Nymphon proximum. Caiman. b. N. bouvieri, c. N. mendosuni, Hodgson, d. N. biarticulatum, Hodgson. e. N. neumayri, (Type H—all x 20.) species Femur articulation of the seventh on the sixth segment is characteristic of this (Fig. 26 a). Third leg. Second coxa a little longer, dorsally, than the sum of the other two. shorter than either tibia, at least thirty crowded, small gland openings along mid-ventral surface; second tibia slightly longer than first. Tarsus and propodus both elongated and armed ventrally with numerous fine setae; the former always slightly longer than the latter (1-05-1-31 : i). Claw nearly half as long as propodus as a rule; auxiliaries from one-fourth to one-third of main claw. The legs are robust and setose; in addition to the fine, short setae, there are long setae at the distal articulation of (i) the third coxa—ventrally; (2) the femur—dorsally; (3) each tibia—ventrally; and a number of strong setae along the lateral margins of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally e
