Fig. 84. Scina setigera Wagler (after Wagler, 1926). 



is somewhat longer than the 4th and the 6th, which are almost equal in 

 length; the claw is short with a broadened base and bent acute tip. 



The uropods are thin with a relatively well-developed exopodite 

 and weakly armed. Uropods I: the exopodite is long, more than 2/3 the 

 length of the endopodite; ornamentation is in the form of small sparse 

 denticles only on the inner margin of the endopodite. uropods II are very 

 narrow, the exopodite constitutes nearly 1/4 the length of the endopodite; 

 ornamentation is in the form of small sparse denticles only on the distal 

 part of the posterior margin of the uropods. In uropods III the endopodite 

 is longer than the basipodite; the exopodite is only slightly shorter than 

 the endopodite; the margins of the basipodite and both rami are smooth. 

 The telson is oblong-triangular with an acute tip. 



Distribution: The lone specimen (a sexually mature female) was 

 found in the Indian Ocean at the Seychelles. 



This species is absent in our collections.
