Remarks.
Although all of the pereopods are lost, the sole specimen agrees quite well with the description and illustrations of
Baba (1972)
: the rostrum is broad at base; the carapace has two supraocular spines on each side; the basal article of antennule has four spines; the third maxilliped merus has three spines on flexor margin, extensor margin unarmed; there are two spines on the second abdominal segment.
