Merus, carpus and propodus of walking legs as illustrated; merus with lateral setae project- ing from rugae as illustrated (Figure 6, A), plus about six very small spinules on dorsal margin; one large distinct spine dorso-distally; carpus with setae as shown plus distinct long spine laterally; propodus with two strong spines placed more or less laterally plus five spines ventrally, in addition to long and short setae illus- trated; dactylus with setae and spinules as shown. Pereiopod 5 (Figure 6, B) as illustrated, each with five to six long serrate scythe-like setae. Pleopods: (Fig. 6, C, D). Occur on segments two-five; biramous, becoming. FIGURE 6.
