Remarks . The carapace of C. gherasimi sp. nov. is more rectangular in dorsal view than C . rectangulata Petrescu, 2006, but has a transverse ridge anteriorly as in C . dumitrumurariui sp. nov. and C. edenensis Petrescu (2006). The new species has a massive merus and carpus of maxilliped 3 as in C. mioarae sp. nov., but without a process on the medial margin of the basis; pereopod 2 dactylus without a digitiform tip like in C. dumitrumurariui , C. mioarae , not like in C. rectangulata the new species has an uropodal endopod with 8 medial setae, not like in other Australian species with 9 or 10 setae.
