Head length 0.73 width; length posterior to eyestalks 1.0 anterior length. Frontal margin lobe length 0.37 head length; apex bluntly angular in dorsal view, margin adjacent to apex convex, not sinuous. Eyestalks lateral apex somewhat flattened, long axis angling forward at approximately 45°. Pereonite lateral margin 1–4 linear, 5–7 rounded. Pereonite 5 in dorsal view distinctly narrower than pereonites 4 and 6. Pereonite lateral margin 7 finely denticulate. Pleon length 1.0 width in female; pleotelson proximal margin length shorter than lateral margin length. Pleonite 1 width 1.0 distance between uropods, length 0.2 width. Pleotelson laterally angular anteriorly, lateral margins ... : Published as part of Just, Jean & Wilson, George D.
