BMNH ; a. shield and cephalic appendages; b. anterior lobe of sternite of 3rd pereopods; c. I st maxilliped; d. 6th abdominal tergite, protopods of uropods and telson; e. telson. weakly spinulose. Dorsal margins of branchiostegites with 3-6 small spines or spinules. Ocular peduncles swollen proximally and narrowing distally to tapering corneae; overreached by antennular peduncles. Ocular acicles with 1-3 strong and 1 or more smaller spines. Intercalary rostriform process slender, reaching beyond proximal half of acicle but not to tip of inner-most acicular spines; no ventral spine. Antennal peduncles reaching to or slightly beyond distal margins of corneae. Antennal acicle simple, with bifid termi- nal spine and 2 widely-spaced spines on mesial margins. Antennal acicles with pair of long pinnate setae on each article. First maxilliped (Fig. lc) without exopodal flagellum. Left cheliped (Figs 2a, 10a) with row of prominent spines on upper margins of dactyl, palm and carpus, and lower margins of palm and fixed finger; outer surface of dactyl with short row of spines near upper margin; palm and fixed finger with scattered small spines or tubercles, irregular row of larger spines near upper margin of palm. Right cheliped (Fig. 2b) with row of 3 spines adjacent to upper margin of palm; 3 strong spines on upper margin of carpus. Carpi of ambulatory legs (Figs 2c, d) each with dorsodistal spine and 1 additional spine on dorsal surface proximally on second pereopods. Tergite of sixth abdominal somite with lateral and terminal spines marginally. Telson (Figs Id, e) with median cleft practically obsolete; termi- nal margin with row of several large and few smaller spines, extending onto lateral margins.
