is located at the place of bending; the anterior margin of all the segments 

 is pubescent but with fairly sparse setae. 



Pereopods I and II are short and without chelae. The 2nd segment 

 of pereopods I is highly broadened, especially in the proximal part, 1.5 

 times longer than wide, the posterior margin almost straight, and the 

 anterior margin markedly bulged; the 5th segment is the broadest of the 

 distal segments, almost equal in length and width, and both distal angles 

 bear a few spines; the 6th segment is narrower than the 5th but longer, 

 the anterior margin is serrate and bears several submarginal setae, and 

 the posterior margin is almost straight in the proximal part, then bends 

 sharply and forms a serrate projection; the claw apparently varies greatly 

 in length but is usually equal to the 6th segment. The 2nd segment of 

 pereopods II is less broad than in pereopods I, its margins in the middle 

 part almost straight or even slightly concave, and more than 2.5 times
