Kalliapseudes langi Gu ţ u, 2006

Kalliapseudes langi Guţu, 2006: 134–138 View in CoL , Figs. 186–200. Drumm and Heard, 2006a: 35, 37. Drumm and Heard, 2006b: 18. Drumm, 2007: 18.

Type material. Holotype female with oostegites, QM no. W8710.

Material examined. None available for study. Diagnosis prepared from original description ( Guţu, 2006).

Diagnosis (adult female). Rostrum tapering to rounded tip. Pereonites 2 and 3 with anterolateral apophyses. Pleotelson tapering posteriorly to rounded tip and lacking two terminal plumose setae. Antennule first peduncle article lacking ventral spiniform setae; accessory flagellum of four articles. Antenna third peduncle article with one plumose seta on inner margin; flagellum with seven articles. Cheliped and pereopod 1 exopodite with four plumose setae. Pereopod 5 propodus lacking short bipinnate setae on inner and outer surfaces. Pereopod 6 with dactylus having two subterminal setae. Uropod basal article approximately three times as long as broad; exopodite with two articles.

Type locality. Middle Banks , Moreton Bay, eastern Australia (Fig. 1, number 16) .

Geographic distribution. Known from the type locality only.

Remarks. Kalliapseudes langi can be distinguished from the other congeners by a combination of the following characteristics: 1) pereonites 2 and 3 with anterolateral apophyses, 2) exopodite of cheliped and pereopod 1 with four plumose setae and 3) pereopod 6 with dactylus having two subterminal setae.
