Certain geographical range includes Kamchatka, Sea of Okhotsk, Sea of Japan, Pacific side of northern Japan extending from Hokkaido to Iwate Prefecture; 144– 338 m. Variation . The number of ventral teeth on the second to fifth pleura of the pleon exhibits substantial variation not related to sex or size (Table 1), although in some cases, the absence of tooth or teeth seems to be due to secondary loss caused by damage or abrasion. The second pleura usually bear three ventral teeth, although the number of the teeth on either side varies from three to five. The third pleura have three teeth at least on one side in all specimens examined. The fourth pleura have three or more teeth in vast majority of the specimens (83.3 %). The fifth pleura bear two ventral teeth at least on one side in most specimens (95.8 %). Second pleura Combination of number of teeth 2-3 3 - 3 3-4 4-5 Number of individuals 2 (8.3 %) 19 (79 %) 2 (8.3 %) 1 (4.4 %) Third pleura Combination of number of teeth 2-3 3 - 3 3-4 Number of individuals 1 (4.5 %) 19 (86.4 %) 2 (9.1 %) Fourth pleura Combination of number of teeth 2 - 2 2-3 3 - 3 3-4 Number of individuals 4 (16.7 %) 1 (4.2 %) 14 (58.3 %) 5 (20.8 %) Fifth pleura Combination of number of teeth 2 - 2 2-3 3 - 3 Number of individuals 20 (83.3 %) 3 (12.5 %) 1 (4.2 %) Size-related variation is seen in the development of scattered minute spiniform setae on the surfaces of meral segments on the third maxilliped through the fifth pereopod and additional spines on the meri of the third to fifth pereopods: in juveniles, such spiniform setae or additional spines are not differentiated, but in large specimens, these setae or spines are prominent. The structure of the inner antennular flagellum exhibits noticeable sexual dimorphism as described and figured above, as in other congeneric species (e.g., Komai et al. 2004, 2012; Komai 2013). Remarks . Lebbeus armatus shares with L. groenlandicus and L. magnificus n. sp . several diagnostic characters, including the strong postrostral, antennal and pterygostomial teeth on the carapace, the suborbital lobe with a carinate inner margin, the presence of conspicuous ventral tooth/teeth on the first to fifth pleura, the prominent, laterally flared posteroventral teeth on the sixth pleomere, the presence of a prominent proximal protuberance on the dorsal surface of the telson, the possession of a strong tooth at the dorsolateral distal angle of the antennal basicerite, and the presence of a conspicuous tooth on the posterodorsal margin of the uropodal endopod. No other congeneric species have these characteristics, as far as known. Nevertheless, L. armatus is easily distinguished from these two species by many characters, including the possession of a dense covering of short setae on the carapace, extending to postrostral teeth, and on depressions of pleura of the second to sixth pleomeres, the extremely strong, crested postrostral teeth noticeably increasing in the size anteriorly (the first tooth is strongest and produced beyond the second tooth), the clearly delimited branchial ridge on the carapace, the usual possession of at least three pleural ventral teeth on the second to fourth pleomeres, the presence of lateral spines on the carpi of the third and fourth pereopods, and the presence of additional spines, not aligned with lateroventral row, on the meri of the third to fifth pereopods. These characters appear autapomorphic to L. armatus within the genus. In the latter two species, the carapace and pleon bear only sparse setae (in particular, postrostral teeth are glabrous); the postrostral teeth are generally weaker than in L. armatus , of which the first tooth is weaker than the second tooth; the branchial ridge on the carapace is obsolescent; the second : Published as part of Komai, Tomoyuki, 2015, Reinstatement and redescription of Lebbeus armatus (Owen, 1839), long synonymized with L. groenlandicus (Fabricius, 1775), and description of one new species from the southwestern Sea of Okhotsk, Hokkaido, Japan (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Thoridae), pp. 451-473 in Zootaxa 3905 (4) on pages 452-462, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3905.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/244811 : {"references": ["Owen, R.
