The form of the telson of the succeeding instar is visible through the skin. The two rami of the second antennae are carried on a peduncle of two segments. The anterior ramus carries two lateral spines and four setose terminal spines. The second ramus carries six setose terminal spines. The mandible is naked, and the first and second maxillae and first thoracic limb are present and setose. The abdomen is unsegmented. The telson carries one pair of ventro-lateral, three pairs of postero- lateral, and six terminal 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 Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (Great Britain); National Institute of Oceanography of Great Britain; Great Britain.
