Type material. Holotype: BCPM 978 View Materials . Not seen

Diagnosis. Carapace without lateral ridges; eyelobe with lenses, not extending to anterior border of pseudorostrum. Telson with 3 pairs of lateral setae, 5 terminal setae, outermost pair longest, inner pair and central seta equal. Uropod peduncle with 4 medial setae; uropod exopod article 1 0.9 length of article 2. Male unknown.

Depth. 20–95 m.

Distribution. Departure Bay, Vancouver Island, Canada, 49°12.6’N, 123°57.6’E (estimated from Google Earth); Kamschatka Peninsula.

Remarks. Alamprops serratus is unique in Alamprops and Lamprops in having the anterolateral corner of the carapace strongly serrate rather than entire. Alamprops serratus is most similar to A. affinis , but in A. affinis the telson terminal setae are equal in length, while in A. serratus the outermost pair are longer than the medial three setae.
