[No. 2, 
much produced laterally, on each branchial region; and one, Cupid’s 
bow-shaped, along the posterior border. Besides these there are some 
smaller islet-like excrescences, namely, on each side, a supra-ocular, 
post-ocular, hepatic, and branchial. 
Between the supra and post-ocular excrescences, are set the small 
squat little-movable eyes. 
Of the trunk-legs, the 2nd pair ( i.e ., first ambulatory legs) are the 
longest, being very slightly longer than the chelipeds, and considerably 
shorter than the carapace measured with the rostrum, but much longer 
than any of the last 3 pairs of legs. 
In the female all the long joints, except the dactyli, and in the 
male all except the dactyli and propodites, are strongly carinated 
dorsally. 
The chelipeds are hardly stouter than the next pair of legs, except 
as regards the palm in the male, which is broadened and somewhat 
inflated. In neither sex are the short white polished fingers apposable 
throughout.

Carapace depressed, elongate-triangular in the male,* with the 
lateral epibranchial angles produced ; sub-quadrangular in the female, 
with two large foliaceous lobes (epibranchial and hepatic) on either 
side : a small pre-ocular, but no post-ocular spine. Rostrum simple, 
acute, vertically deep, laterally compressed. Abdomen in the male 
seven-jointed; in the female five-jointed; with the fourth to the sixth 
joints coalescent. 
Eyes very small and almost immobile. 
* A small hepatic lobe is sometimes present in the male also, on either side.
