Trunk stout, short, separated from cephalothorax by a groove, no (distinct external) processes. Ovisacs stout. Antenna 1 3-jointed. Antenna 2 biramous. 1st maxillae tripartite. 2nd maxillae short, stout, separate throughout their length, or united at tips by a bulla. o*—Cephalothorax separated from trunk by a constriction, trunk posteriorly bent forwards. Antenna 1 3-jointed. Antenna 2 uniramous. Remarks. This genus was established by Wilson to contain the two Antarctic species antarctica Quidor 1906, and gainii Quidor 1912.
