Ventral bristle. posterior extremity uncovered. They are fringed (Fig. 7 a) and carry numerous small bollard-shaped tubercles with thick cuticular caps (Fig. 7 b) and a few large egg-shaped or urn-shaped vesicles (Fig. 7 c). These large vesicles tend to be situated at the hinder margin of the scales especially in the posterior region of the body. In the front region they are distributed more widely over the surface.

The dorsal bristles are stout and strongly pectinated except at the tip, which is smooth. Just above the neuropodial aciculum the apex of the chaeta-sac is produced into a finger-shaped process. The ventral bristles (Fig. 7 d) are rather slender, with numerous frills and a bidentate tip. The second tooth lies well below the 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.
