Third pleopod inner lobe broad, apex rounded with 2 setae, outer 

 lobe 2-jointed, a little longer than inner. 



Uropods three-quarters length of pleon, inner rarnus longer than

Length: $ 2-5 mm., 2 T75 mm.; breadth: $ -75 mm., J 

 (ovigerous) -75 mm. 



Colour: Pale grey, eyes reddish, ova salmon-coloured. 



Locality: Buffels Bay (False Bay). 28/9/13. (K.H.B.) $ $ and

In respect to the stout, subchelate 1st peraeopods this species may 

 be compared with three other species of small size: /. in i nut a, 

 Richardson, 1902, /. nana, Stebbing, 1905, and /. crosslandi, Steb- 

 bing, 1910. The absence of a scale on the 3rd joint of the 2nd 

 antennae, however, is distinctive and brings the species into conflict 

 with the definition of the genus Janira. The shape of the head 

 also is peculiar and recalls that of Nannoniscus, Sars, and Austro- 

 nanus, Hodgson, 1910. It is in allusion to these last two features 

 that the specific name is chosen.

KUPHOMUNNA, n. gen. 



Resembling Munna in general shape, but head produced anteriorly 

 into a rostrum, 1st peraeon segment much larger than any of the 

 others, gibbous, epimera visible on posterior segments only, uropods 

 not very small, composed of a peduncle and two rami, palp of 

 maxilliped slender. 



Generic name from Kvfyog, hunch-backed, and Munna, in allusion 

 to the enlarged 1st peraeon segment.
