Pereopods 5–7 (figs 6G–I), meri and carpi not expanded but ordinary rectangular in form.
Variation. Unfortunately, only one mature male specimen was collected in the present study so that it is impossible to judge how much variation may occur during the mature stage in male. Body length at maturity of male is 10.9 mm, female 6.8-10.7 mm, because the 6.8 mm female (CMNC 2012-0012) was found brooding offspring. In these 2 mature females, gnathopod 1 to pereopod 7 ratio of article lengths are similar to each other. The mature female, 6.8 mm, however, pereopods 5–7 bases slightly wider than those of large female (10.7 mm long); pereopods 5–7 propodi with a row of 4, 5, and 4 spines along posterior margins, respectively, while 5, 6, and 4 spines in the large female; uropods 1–2 peduncles with 5 and 3 dorsolateral spines, while 6 and 3 in the large female; uropods 1–2 outer rami with 6 and 5 outer spines, while 7 and 5 in the large female. On the other hand, small juveniles (4.2–5.8 mm), antenna 1 has a flagellum of 17–30; antenna 2 a flagellum of 9–13 articles; pereopods 5–7 propodi with a row of 3–4, 4, 3–4 spines posteriorly; uropods 1–2 peduncles with 3–4 and 2 dorsolateral spines; uropods 1–2 rami with 3–5 and 3–4 outer spines.
Remarks. Among the species of genus Peramphithoe , only 3 other species have some degree of enlargement or broadening of pereopods 5–7 in the male: P. fa l s a Barnard, 1932, P. s p u r i a Krapp-Schickel, 1978 and P. p a r m e rong Poore & Lowry, 1997. However, male of P. chujaensis sp. nov. has a concave palm in the gnathopod 2 and ventral plumose setae on the antenna 2. These conditions do not occur in its congeners.
Molecular data. CO1 gene sequences (GenBank accession numbers JN575621 View Materials – JN575622 View Materials ) were obtained from two specimens. Sequence alignment was straightforward without any insertion or deletion. Intra-specific variation of the CO1 gene sequence of P. chujaensis sp. nov. ranged 0.4%, while inter-specific variation ranged from a low of 9.1% ( P. chujaensis sp. nov. and P. namhaensis ) to a high of 12.1% ( P. chujaensis sp. nov. and P. t e a) (Figure 12, Table 2 View TABLE 2 ).
