Diagnosis. Rostrum as long as carapace, curved upward, with 7–14 dorsal spines, teeth between middle of carapace and midpoint of rostrum; 13 ventral teeth, apex with 1–3 small teeth. Eye pigmented. Carapace with antennal, pterygostomian teeth; surface punctate. Antennules twice length of carapace. Scaphocerite with blade nearly as long as carapace, blade broadly rounded and exceeding lateral tooth. Third maxilliped without exopod, with epipod, broad laminate expansion on ischium. Pereopod 1 short, with broad laminate expansion on ischium. Pereopods 2 equal or subequal, carpus with 20–24 articles. Pereopods 3–5 long and slender, with slender spinulose dactyls, 1 or 2 carpal spines, 5 or 6 meral spines. Abdominal somite 3 with posterior dorsal lobe. Abdominal somite 6, 1.5 times as long as wide. Total length to 165 mm.

Color in life. Bright red.

Habitat and depth. Offshore mud and sand, 550–2000 m.

Range. Washington State to Acapulco; Gulf of California , southeastern Atlantic. Type locality off Montevideo, Uruguay .

Remarks. Christoffersen (1989) synonymized Pandalopsis with Pandalus Leach, 1814 ; but Komai (1994) rejected this synonymy because it was based on larval features. Because P. ampla has been reported in widely separated localities, Komai (1994) suggested that this might actually be a species complex.
