The head equals the length of the first two pergonal segments. The tibial process of the 

 first pair of perceopoda is far from reaching to the base of the carpal process; the front 

 margin of the carpal process is serrated, shorter than the hind margin of the metacarpus. 

 The carpus of the third and fourth pairs is dilated; the hind margin is straight, serrated, 

 the lower corner produced. The last three pairs are not longer than the two next pre- 

 ceding pairs; the femur is narrow; the metacarpus is mediocre. The lateral parts of the 

 pleonal segments are rounded. The first pair of uropoda do not reach to the apex of the 

 last pair; the outer ramus is a little shorter than the inner one. The inner ramus of the 

 last pair is somewhat longer than the breadth of the peduncle. The telson is a little 

 shorter than half the length of the peduncle of the last pair of uropoda.
