as a pair of nodules with apical setae, ventral projections 
present. Gnathopod 2 basis 1.9 times as long as broad; 
propodus, palm concave, with two subtriangular teeth, 
without palm defining robust setae. Pereonites 3-4 dorsal 
carina developed as a pair of nodules with apical setae, 
ventral projections present. Pereonites 5-1 dorsal carina 
developed as a single nodule with apical setae, ventral 
projections present. Pereopod 6 articles lined with long 
plumose setae. Pleonites 1-2 dorsal carina developed as a 
single nodule with apical setae, lateral projections present. 
Uropod 2 reduced, uniramus.
