Maxilla 1, inner lobe wanting, outer lobe strong, twisted, its distal margin with two strong teeth, then a small one, then a moderately large one, followed by two small ones, setae arranged as in figure, palp large, laminate, curved, ovate, its distal margin minutely denticulate. Maxilla 2, inner lobe with a single apical spine, and a subapical dense whorl of setae, outer lobe with three strong apical spines, and some setae on inner and outer margins. Maxilliped, inner plates completely fused into a conical projection tipped with two spinules, and a subapical patch of setae; outer plates ovate, inner margin minutely serrulate. Gnathopod 1, 5th joint triangularly expanded, laminate, apex reaching three-quarters along 6th joint, upper and lower margins finely pectinate, 6th narrow ovate, lower margin pectinate, a low longitudinal ridge on outer surface. Gnathopod 2 similar to gnathopod 1, but more slender, the produced apex of 5th joint reaching to end of 6th. Peraeopods 1 and 2 similar to one another, but the 2nd joint in the 2nd not so markedly flask-shaped as in the 1st, 4th and 5th joints subequal, 6th longer, lower margins of 5th and 6th minutely pectinate. Peraeopods 3 and 4 a little longer than peraeopods 1 and 2,
