). Fortunately, the specimens of both sexes were collected in the present study. There is no doubt that these specimens are
due to the following characters: 1) the carapace has strong serrations on antero-lateral margin and a pair of short oblique ridges on the side surface; 2) the short oblique ridges begin near the end of frontal lobe and merge with dorsal median carina; 3) the antenna 1, pereopod 2 and uropod have a lot of simple setae decorated with a bundle of hairs at the end. Also, the setal
5 and uropod, are almost the same as Gamô̓s specimen. There is, however, a slight dif- ference in the length ratio of the pereopods and uropods, between the collected specimens and the original description (
