Figs 5—6: Ammothea watamu n. sp. — 5) c holotype, 3rd leg; 6) 9 paratype, 3rd leg. fourth segment longest, times longer than second. In particular, segments 5 — 8 with several short lateral and ventral setae. Oviger 10-segmented; segments 1—3 and the more elongate segments 4—5 sub- equal in length; terminal segment smallest; 7th segment with distal bidentate spine; segments 8+10 with a pair of leaf-hke, 9 with only one, compound spines, largest on terminal segment. Legs relatively short and robust, armed with several short setae, mostly dorsal and lateral on tibiae and propodus; coxae 1 and 3 subequal in length; second coxa times longer than coxae 1 and 3, with oval ventrodistal genital spur (reminiscent of genus Achelia); femur and tibia subequal in length, femur the more robust segment; dorsodistal cement-gland-opening located on very short, rounded tubercle; tarsus very short, of Vs propodus length, bearing about 6 short, ventral setae; propodus relatively slender, well curved, without heel; sole with two strong spines in proximal.
