Abstract
The general appearance anatomy and habits of this crab are described briefly. The main part of the paper is devoted to a description of the very remarkable respiratory system which is more highly modified for aerial respiration than any other decapod crustacean. The relation of this form to the hermit crabs is pointed out.
