Body width 0.61 length in female, 0.57 length in male, widest in female at pereionite 3, widest in terminal male at pereionites 1 and 2. Head longer in male than female, length in male 0.6 width, in female 0.5 width; length posterior to eyestalks 1.3 anterior length in male 0.93 in female. Frontal margin with angular lateral margins adjacent to antennae, shallow convex, almost straight medially. Eyestalks in female length 1.7 width, in male 2.6 width, slightly expanded distally, apex rounded, long axis angling forward at approximately 30° in female and male. Pereionites 1–6 lateral margins not projecting, rounded; pereionite 7 lateral margins with 2 (♀) and 1 (♂) re- curved spines apically; pereionite 1 of terminal male greatly enlarged, sagittal length in terminal male 2.8 pereionite midline length, in female 2.2 pereionite midline length. Coxae 2–4 (♂) and 1–4 (♀) not visible in dorsal view; coxal plate 1 in male rounded forward pointing; coxae 5–7 visible in dorsal view, with 1 recurved spine on apex. Pleon length 1.1 width in female, 1.2 width in male. Pleonite 1 width 0.7 of distance between uropods (♂, ♀), length 0.30 width in female, 0.25 in male. Pleotelson broadly rounded, without inflection between proximal and lateral margins, proximal margin shorter than lateral margin; proximal margin forming 50° angle with medial axis of pleon (♂, ♀); lateral margins with 10–13 denticles each side; posterior projection forming 70° angle (♂, ♀), set apart from lateral margins by concavity at level of uropods, apex broadly rounded with fringe of long setae. Antennula articles 1–2 combined extending beyond eyestalk apex; article 1 shorter than 2, tubular, slightly broader than 2; article 3 as long as 4 and 5 combined, 5 slightly shorter than 6. Antenna article 3 tubular, width 0.40 length, article 5 distinctly shorter than article 6; flagellum with 7 articles, proximal article as long as second and third articles combined. Pereiopod I basis length 3.3 width, with crenate ridge on anterior margin; ischium with row of blunt spines on anterior margin; merus with several small anterodorsal spines; carpus triangular, distal width subequal to posterior margin length, posterior margin with 2 spines proximal to robust setae, 1 spine between robust setae, one spine distal to robust setae; propodus narrowing distally to insertion of dactylus, with 2 robust setae on opposing margin. Male pleopods I lateral lobes distinctly projecting from lateral margin, width 0.30 distance to midline; distal sublobe with tuft of simple setae; distal projection length 0.32 pleopod total length, combined lobes forming acute angle of 60°, with pointed, setiferous apices. Female operculum distal part tapering with moderately concave distolateral margins, width 0.72 length, setiferous apex broadly rounded. Uropods dorsal and directly adjacent to lateral margin of pleotelson; protopod absent or hidden. Size. Largest female 1.7 mm; largest male 1.7 mm. Distribution . New Zealand, subantarctic islands, intertidal to 23 m. Remarks . Meridiosignum convexum sp. nov. is most similar to M . minidenticulata Just & Wilson, 2007 except that the pleotelson lateral margins has 10–13 large denticles whereas the latter species has 15–17 small denticles. : Published as part of Just, Jean & Wilson, George D.
