Summary: | Alamprops kensleyi (Haye & Gerken, 2005) n. comb. Lamprops kensleyi Haye & Gerken, 2005: 30–36, figs 1–3. Type material. Holotype: MNHNCL CUM–11536, subadult male. Paratypes: MNHNCL CUM–11537, 2 mancae, 1 ovigerous female, 1 subadult female. Ancud, Chiloé, Chile, 41°49.6’S, 73°50.7’W. Diagnosis. Carapace without lateral ridges; eyelobe with lenses, not extending to anterior border of pseudorostrum. Telson with 4 pairs of lateral setae, 3 equal terminal setae. Uropod peduncle with 4 medial setae; uropod exopod article 1 0.6 length of article 2. Adult male unknown. Depth. 14–19 m. Distribution. Ancud, Chiloé, Chile, 41°49.6’S, 73°50.7’W. Remarks. Although the most mature male in the material collected was a subadult male, it was the pre-adult molt, and the antenna extended to the end of carapace, suggesting a long antennal flagellum in the final molt. The only other species in either Alamprops or Lamprops with three terminal setae on the telson is L. beringi, which has a single strong lateral ridge on the carapace, unlike A. kensleyi which is without lateral ridges. The only other Alamprops from this region is A. comatus from the Antarctic, which also has a smooth carapace, but it has five terminal setae on the telson and was found at a depth of 3423 m.
