Gnathophausia longispina G.O. Sars, 1883

Records from Indonesia. Northern part of Nusa Tenggara Barat Island ( Hansen 1910), Makassar Strait ( Băcescu 1991) and northern part of Kei Besar Island ( Casanova 1996). Depth range: 93–1080 m.

Remarks. Gnathophausia longispina can be recognized from his congeners by the spine on the antennal scale which projects well beyond the apex and is heavily serrated along the entire margin. The antennal spine of the carapace is missing or very small. There is a large, triangular branchiostegal spine and two additional spines on each side of the anterior pleura of the sixth abdominal segment ( Meland & Aas 2013).
