Carapace ( Fig. 1A, B, D View FIGURE 1 ): Slightly dorsoventrally flattened; rostrum slightly curved and slender, longer than antennular peduncle; dorsal anterior and posterior processes present; anteroventral margin bearing 1 strong pterygostomian spine and 3 denticles; eyes sessile.
Antennule ( Fig. 1E View FIGURE 1 ): Peduncle unsegmented, slender, and bearing 1 small tubercle; endopod with 1 long, plumose seta; exopod unsegmented with 1 spatulate seta, 3 aesthetascs, 1 plumose seta.
Antenna ( Fig. 1F View FIGURE 1 ): Peduncle unsegmented with 1 sharp basal spine distally; endopod unsegmented, with 1 long plumose seta and 1 sharp, slender spine terminally; exopod 6-segmented, 9 plumose setae on inner margin, 1 seta on apex and 2 plumose setae on outer margin, 1 tubercle on the first segment at proximal position in the inner margin.
Mandible ( Fig. 1G View FIGURE 1 ): Palp absent; right and left slightly asymmetrical, right incisor with 3 terminal teeth; left incisor with 4 teeth (1 subterminal + 3 terminal) and lacinia mobilis.
Maxillule ( Fig. 1H View FIGURE 1 ): Coxal endite with 7 (2 subterminal + 5 terminal) plumose setae; basial endite with 2 strong, cuspidate setae and 3 simple setae; endopod unsegmented, with 6 setae forming 3 groups: basal group with 1 small, simple seta and 2 sparsely plumose setae; median group with 2 sparsely plumose setae; and distal group with only 1 long sparsely plumose seta; exopod absent.
Maxilla ( Fig. 1I View FIGURE 1 ): Coxal endite bilobed with 9 + 4 plumose setae; basial endite bilobed with 4 + 4 plumose setae; endopod with 9 (3 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2) setae; scaphognathite margin with 5 plumose setae.
First Maxilliped ( Fig. 1J View FIGURE 1 ): Coxa with 3 plumose setae; basis with 12 plumose setae; endopod 4-segmented with 3, 1, 2, 4 (1 outer + 3 terminal) setae; exopod unsegmented, armed distally with 4 (1+3) long, plumose natatory setae.
Second Maxilliped ( Fig. 1K View FIGURE 1 ): Coxa without setae; basis with 9 plumose setae; endopod 4-segmented with 3, 1, 2, 5 (1 outer + 4 terminal) setae; exopod unsegmented, armed distally with 5 (2+3) long plumose natatory setae.
Third Maxilliped ( Fig. 1L View FIGURE 1 ): Coxa without setae; basis with 4 plumose setae; endopod 4-segmented with 2, 1, 2, 4 (1 outer + 3 terminal) setae; exopod unsegmented, armed distally with 5 (2+3) long plumose natatory setae.
Pereiopods: Absent.
