This very unusual feature is immediately diagnostic, but could be overlooked in a disarticulated or damaged specimen, or even one that has been manipulated to the point that the pereiopods are in the "normal" Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Southern California Academy of Sciences.
