Not illustrated. 1890 Excerpt: ...1; p. 23, fig. 12; p. 25, fig. 18 and 23; p. 26, fig. 27; p. 29, fig. 40; p. 32, fig. 51; p. 34, fig. 59; p. 35, fig. 61, and p. 38 fig. 74. Diagn. The head is a little longer than the first four peraeonal segments together. The rostrum is broad, abruptly narrowed at the apex, and about as long as the hind part of the head, which is much broader than the base of the rostrum. The free under margin of the carpus of the first two pairs of perceopoda is serrated, armed with bristles, and longer than the hind margin of the metacarpus. The lower hind corner of the femur of the sixth pair is produced backwards into a strong, triangular, sharp-pointed process. The femur of the seventh pair is more than half as long as that of the sixth, and more than twice as long as the three following joints together. The epimeral of the fifth pair shows a tuberculous prominence. The lateral parts of the pleonal segments are straight and smooth below; the hind corner of the first two segments is angular, that of the third is strongly produced backwards into a long, triangular, sharp-pointed process, which reaches beyond the hind margin of the first ural segment. The last coalesced ural segment is about as long as the telson. The telson is rounded at the apex, and reaches quite to the apex of the last pair of uropoda. Syn. 1887. Tullbergella cuspidata, C. Bovallius. 35, p. 38. Tullbergella cuspidata is probably the stoutest and most robust of all the Oxycephalids. The integument of the body is thicker and harder than in the other representatives of the family, Stebbingella Theeli perhaps excepted. The form of the rostrum shows, as mentioned above, some tendency towards the -wing-like projections- so enormously developed in the genus Calamorltynchus. The head (p. 20, fig....
