Diagnosis: Rostrum sligthly curved upward, with 3 dorsal spines. Cervical carina reaches the middle of carapace. Females with a semioval plate on sternite XII, sternites XI and XIII each with a median carina. Males with a small triangular plate on sternite XII, sternite XI with a median carina, and sternite XIII with a median carina ending in a spine. Abdominal pleurae with small terminal spines. Abdominal somites 3–6 with a median dorsal carina, and with dorsal spines. Petasma with ventral costa approximately of the same size of lateral lobe, with distal extremity curved, but not forming a hook; lateral lobe almost reaches median lobe. Appendix interna semioval with marginal cuspidate setae and with simple setae on base. Appendix masculina of the same length and thinner than appendix interna, with cuspidate setae on inner margin.
Description: Rostrum slightly curved upward, with 3 dorsal spines, with some simple setae on ventral region of rostrum and in front of rostrum spines ( Fig. 20 View FIGURE 20 a). Adrostral and branchiocardiac carina well defined; cervical carina reaches the middle of carapace; antennal, antero-lateral, branchiostegal and gastro-orbital carina present; hepatic carina absent; antennal and branchiostegal spines present ( Fig. 20 View FIGURE 20 a).
Abdominal somites 1–2 with a depression that extends from dorsum to the middle of pleurae; pleurae with marginal setae and small terminal spines; abdominal somites 3–6 with a median dorsal carina, and with dorsal spines ( Fig. 20 View FIGURE 20 a).
Antennal scaphocerite approximately 1.3 X of antennular peduncle ( Fig. 20 View FIGURE 20 a–c).
Right and left mandibles with incisor and molar processes distinct; palp present ( Fig. 20 View FIGURE 20 d, 20e).
Maxillae, maxillipeds as for the family ( Figs. 20 View FIGURE 20 f-g, 21a-c).
First pereopod dactyl approximately 1.6 X of palm; carpus approximately 1.4 X of dactyl; merus approximately 1.5 X of carpus, with a disto-lateral cuspidate setae ( Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 d).
Second pereopod dactyl approximately 1.5 X of palm; carpus approximately 2 X of dactyl; merus approximately 1.2 X of carpus, with a disto-lateral cuspidate setae ( Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 e).
Third pereopod dactyl approximately 1.5 X of palm; carpus approximately 2.5 X of dactyl, and of the same size of merus; males with a small spine on coxa ( Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 f).
Fourth pereopod dactyl approximately 0.5 X of propodus; propodus approximately 0.6 X of carpus; merus approximately 1.4 X of carpus; males with a small spine on coxa ( Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 g).
Fifth pereopod dactyl approximately 0.5 X of propodus; propodus approximately 0.6 X of carpus; merus approximately 1.4 X of carpus; males with a spine on coxa ( Fig. 21 View FIGURE 21 h).
Females with a semioval plate on sternite XII, sternites XI and XIII each with a median carina ( Fig. 22 View FIGURE 22 a). Males with a small triangular plate on sternite XII, sternite XI with a median carina, and sternite XIII with a median carina ending in a spine ( Fig. 22 View FIGURE 22 b).
Petasma with ventral costa approximately of the same size of ventro-lateral lobe, with distal extremity curved, but not forming a hook; lateral lobe almost reaches median lobe ( Fig. 22 View FIGURE 22 c–d). Appendix masculina semioval with marginal cuspidate setae and with simple setae on base ( Fig. 22 View FIGURE 22 e–f). Appendix interna of the same length and thinner than appendix masculina, with cuspidate setae on inner margin ( Fig. 22 View FIGURE 22 e)
Juvenile male: One juvenile male (cc: 22,0 mm, MNRJ 14510) was found among specimens examined herein. Being a juvenile specimen, its sexual characters are poorly defined, although it is possible to affirm that it is a male for the presence of appendix masculina. Despite sexual characters are very important to separate species of Aristeidae , others characters as carapace and abdominal spines, presence of rudimentary exopods on pereopods, and presence of disto-lateral cuspidate setae on first and second pereopods, were used to affirm that this specimen is P. a r m a t u s.
