| Summary: | Figure 9. Details of the postantennular limbs of Kiisortoqia soperi gen. et sp. nov. A, close-up of MGUH 28946, showing endopods, exopod setae, and basipod spines (see Fig. 8B for an interpretative line drawing), the first postantennular limb is only marked by the basipod armature, arrows point to bulges that may represent the limbs of the opposing limb series folded under the axis. B, close-up of the postantennular limbs of MGUH 28942, arrows mark joints between the podomeres of the endopod. C, MGUH 28956, close-up of distal parts of endopods, showing the distal (ninth) podomere, which is a stout spine (arrows). Abbreviations: ant, antennula; app1-3 bas, basipods of first to third postantennular appendages; app1 ex, exopod of first postantennular appendage; app2 en, endopod of second postantennular appendage; cs, cephalic shield; en1–9, first to ninth podomere of the endopod; exs, exopod setae; tg1, first trunk tergite; tg2, second trunk.
