Type locality. Lake Baikal, Sennaya Bay near Bolshie Koty, where Sibiryakov’s factory was situated, 51°53´N, 105°04´E (see Drizhenko, 1908); specified here.

Diagnosis. Marginal prominences of head shorter than marginal prominences of pereonites, blunt ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 b). Uronite 1 with dorso-lateral spine-setae ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 c). Antenna 1 equal to or longer than half of body length (0.5−0.6 times body length) ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 a). Antenna 1 peduncle segment 1 slightly shorter than segment 2. Antenna 2 peduncle segment 4 slightly shorter than segment 5 ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 a). Mandibular palp segment 1 with one–three ventral setae; segment 3 with 24 to 45 short ventral spine-setae. Coxa 4 with convex distal margin ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 a). Posterior margin of pereopod 6 basis clearly concave ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 c). Uropod 3 about as long as urosome ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 c). Uropod 3 rami subequal in length ( Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 f).

Color greenish-yellowish, with dark-orange or brown spots. Pereonites 1−3 with wide dorso-lateral spots. Pereonites 4 and 5 without dorso-lateral spots. ( Fig. 8 View FIGURE 8 a, b).

Body length of adult individuals 21−36 mm.

Description of lectotype. Fitting the specific and generic diagnoses above, with following specifications. Marginal prominences of pereonites 1−5 blunt and hooked. Uronite 1 with two and three, uronite 2 and 3 with two dorso-lateral spine-setae on each side. Antenna 1 longer than half of body length (0.6 times body length). Antenna 1 peduncle segment 2 slightly longer than segments 1 and 3. Antenna 1 flagellum with 22 subsegments. Mandibular palp segment 1 with one ventral seta; segment 2 about as long as segment 3; segment 3 with 24 short ventral spine-setae. Uropod 3 exopod 1.1 times as long as endopod.

DNA. Mitochondrial DNA lineage typified by the sequence of a fragment of the COI gene deposited in GenBank with accession no GQ919202 View Materials (from a specimen from Sennaya Bay, MZH 53172), from which conspecific specimens may differ at up to 2.8 % of nucleotide sites, whereas any heterospecific individuals at least 15 %.

Allozymes. Distinguished from B. baikali by having electrophoretically slower allozymes of the enzymes ENO, MDH-1 and PGD, and electrophoretically faster ones of AAT-2, AP, ARK, IDH-1, IDH-2, MDH-2 and PGM (Table 1).

Distribution and habitat. Throughout the coasts of Baikal ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 b), on sandy bottoms at 5−35 m depth, typically deeper than 10 m.
