Description
Summary:Tumidochelia uncinata (Hansen, 1913) new comb. Leptognathia uncinata Hansen, 1913 Material. Holotype, non-ovigerous female, (ZMUC CRU- 8518), Davis Strait, Ingolf Sta. 36, 61° 50 ’N, 56 ° 21 ’W, 2702 m. Paratype, 1 juvenile (ZMUC CRU- 9275), Ingolf Sta. 103, 66° 23 ’N, 8 ° 52 ’W, 1090 m. Remarks. Leptognathia unicinata is transferred to Tumidochelia due to the special structure of the cheliped carpal shield and the biramous uropod with a spiniform process on the basal article. It also conforms to the other diagnostic characters: antennule article 1 shorter than rest of antennule, article 2 almost as long as article 1, and the pereopod 1 carpus shorter than merus.

Tanaidomorpha from the East China Sea, the West Pacific Ocean and the Nansei Islands, pp. 1-43 in Zootaxa 1464 on pages 7-8, DOI:10.5281/zenodo.176517
