Figure 49.—Troglocarcinus corallicola ; a, dorsal view, x about 4 times, of a ? removed from its den in a coral (Mussa), from Dominical.; b, a smaller 2 specimen, x about 4 times, ventral view ; the abdomen, legs, outer max- illipeds, and anteunules are removed, except one basal antennular segment; c, the same, another 2 example ; dorsal view, x 4. Phot. A. H. V. ( It is, perhaps, more closely allied to Cryptochirus coralliodytes Heller, f from the Red Sea and Maldives, which lives in the same manner, in dens in Leptoria ( = Mceandr<i). The latter, however, has a differently formed carapace, smooth, convex in front, without marginal spines ; orbits simple, without spines ; and very different maxillipeds. * Proc. Boston Soc. Nat.
