Pleopod 2 endopodite much longer thanexopodite (Fig. 14G). Remarks The examination of the type material showed that this species belongs tothe genus Natalscia. N. cingulata closely resembles N. mina from which itdiffers by the smaller size, presence of a brush of spines on the anteriorpereopods and the shorter posterior point of pleopod 1 exopodite 6. Thecolour pattern is also a distinguishing character. REVISION OF THE FAMILY PHILOSCIIDAE 27 1- I II III IV V VI VII. I II III IV V VI VII
