Type species. Apocuma brasiliense Jones 1973
Diagnosis. Female. Pseudorostral lobes meeting in front of eyelobe and extending at least 0.1 times carapace length past anterior border of eyelobe; pleonite 6 projecting weakly between uropods. Fully developed exopods on maxilliped 3–pereopod 2, pereopod 3 with or without a rudimentary exopod. Male. Fully developed exopods on maxilliped 3–pereopod 4 and 5 pairs of pleopods.
Remarks. This genus is quite different looking from any of the other New Zealand bodotriids, in that it has a dorsally directed pseudorostrum that extends well beyond the eye lobe. The eyelobe is short and broad, without lenses.
New Zealand species. Apocuma chathamensis n. sp., A. sculpta n. sp.
