Remarks.
Kalliapseudes langi
can be distinguished from the other congeners by a combination of the following characteristics: 1) pereonites 2 and 3 with anterolateral apophyses, 2) exopodite of cheliped and pereopod 1 with four plumose setae and 3) pereopod 6 with dactylus having two subterminal setae.
