(A. Milne Edwards, 1873)
One female from Northern Daitozima is questionably identified with this species. The carapace less markedly tomentose, but the dorsal surface is no less markedly convex than in Globopilumnus globosus. The two frontal lobes are well produced but not so markedly as in globosus; the antero-lateral border bears about 10 tubercles (in typical specimen of A. M. Edwards, it is said to have five or six); the dorsal surface near the antero-lateral borders, is scattered with several tubercles. The palm of major cheliped covered with numerous larger tubercles, which are somewhat disposed in longitudinal series; the wrist and palm of minor cheliped covered with sharper and longer spinules. The identification of the present species to G. actumnoides is somewhat doubtful, for it has the carapace rather thickly covered with tomentum instead of being naked; the wrist of cheliped is also not furnished with a thick row of tubercles as figured in the original paper.
