Pleon arclied, narrower than the carapace. First five Segments subequal, last about equal in length to the preceding two. First five Segments armed on tlieir posterior border witli spines, sonie of whicli are forwardly directed. Sixth segment witli the posterior angle of epimcra produced into a spine. Telson short, feeble, about three-fifths of the lengtli of the last segment of the pleon, and as long as its breadth at the base, lateral margins entire, apex feebly armed witli two pairs of short spines, the innermost pair the longer and setiform, but not plumose. Outer uropods about two and a half times as long as the telson. Inner uropods very little shorter than the outer. Tlieir ventral surfaces naked. Female witli two pairs of incubatory lamellae, the posterior pair being very large and extending as far as the posterior boi'der f the seconil segment of the pleon.
