Description

"Three small species are represented in this collection. One of them is nearly related to Diogenes pallescens Whitelegge, from Funafuti, and is here described as a new species. Another may perhaps be the young of Diogenes pugilator Roux, a Mediterranean and Atlantic species which is also found in the Red Sea and, according to Nobili, at Singapore. The third form seems to be new, but it cannot be satisfactorily characterized from a single minute and damaged specimen."
