Side-plates deep, non-setose, 1st subtriangular but not markedly shorter than 2, 4 somewhat truncate below, 5 with posterior lobe deeper than anterior. Pleon seg- ment 3 remarkably shortened dorsally, forming a rounded hump, postero-lateral angle quadrate, slightly produced; segment 4 falling away abruptly from segment 3, with a strong upturned process on posterior margin. Telson oblong, slightly longer than broad, apex angularly and shallowly excised.

Antenna 2, 5th joint shorter than 4th, flagellum subequal to 5th joint, 4-jointed.
