(Figs 2 A, 5E)

Clibanarius foresti Holthuis, 1959: 147, fig. 28.— Coelho & Ramos-Porto, 1986: 51.— Rieger, 1998: 421.— Melo, 1999: 50, fig. 8.—McLaughlin et al., 2010: 19.

Material examined. Brazil: Amapá—“Alm. Saldanha”, st. 1787, 60 m, 5 spec. (MZUSP-7219); Proj. NNE II, st. 1891, 2 spec. (MZUSP-8851); st. 1910A, 3 spec. (MZUSP-8845); st. 1892, 2 spec. (MZUSP-8852); st. 1925A, 1 spec. (MZUSP-8848); st. 1926A, 1 spec. (MZUSP-8846).

Diagnosis. Rostrum acute, very small, not reaching the base of ocular scales. Ocular peduncles slender, not overreaching last segment of antennal peduncle. Antennular peduncles long, overreaching ocular peduncles with more than half length of ultimate segment. Anterior margins of the carapace distinctly concave between rostrum and lateral projections.

Distribution. Western Atlantic—Suriname and Brazil (Amapá and Pará).

Remarks. Clibanarius foresti is close to C. vittatus and C. sclopetarius, but can be distinguished from both these species by the short rostrum and by the very long antennulae.
