Etymology.
The name of the species refers to the presence of 5 setae on the first endopodal segment of the mandible.
Female.
Body (Fig. 7A) length 1.62 mm; prosome 879 μm long; cephalosome 436×600 μm, dorsal cephaloso- mic shield with posteriorly extended posterolateral corners and distinctly broader than free pedigerous somites. Urosome (Fig. 7B) 5-segmented: fifth pedigerous somite 218 μm wide. Genital double somite 222×189 μm, gradually narrowing posteriorly; bearing paired genital apertures dorsolaterally at 38% of double-somite length. Three free abdominal somites 91×127, 76×124, and 109×127 μm, respectively; anal somite ornamented with minute spinules along posteroventral border near base of caudal rami (Fig. 7C). Caudal ramus (Fig. 7C) about 4.8 times longer than wide (203×42 μm) and armed with 6 setae; lateral seta located about at mid-length of ramus.
Rostrum (Fig. 7D) about 127×117 μm, tapering to pointed apex. Antennule (Fig. 7E) 450 μm long and 17-seg- mented; third segment with trace of subdivision; setation not observed due to loss of setae. Antenna (Fig. 7F) with inner seta on basis, plus 2 exopodal setae (1 small and setule-like); first endopodal segment with 1 seta on inner margin; second with 5 setae (4 at inner distal corner and 1 on inner margin); third 73×23 μm, longer than second, and armed with slender curved claw plus 6 setae.

holotype
female. A, biting edge of coxal gnathobase of mandible; B, maxilla; C, maxilliped; D, leg 1; E, leg 2; F, leg 4; G, leg 5. Scale bars: A, 0.02 mm; B–G, 0.05 mm.
Labrum (Fig. 7G) tapering posteriorly with broad posteromedian lobe; posterolateral corners and posteromedian lobe setulose. Mandible (Fig. 7H) with 8 teeth, 2 setae, and rows of spinules on coxal gnathobase (Fig. 8A), three proximal teeth spinulose; basis with 1 seta on medial margin: exopod 4-segmented, armed with 1, 1, 1, and 2 setae; endopod with 5 setae on first segment and 10 setae on second. Paragnath (Fig. 7I) ornamented with 1 small denticle at outer distal region, minute spinules apically, and setules on inner surface. Maxillule (Fig. 7J) with 11 setae (including 1 on ventral surface) on precoxal arthrite, 1 seta on coxal endite, 2 unequal setae on coxal epipodite, 1 spine and 6 setae on medial margin of basis, 4 setae on exopod and 9 setae on 2-segmented endopod (5 and 4 on first and second segments, respectively); all setae on endopod and 3 distal setae on basis naked. Maxilla (Fig. 8B) 6-segmented with suture line between precoxa and coxa; precoxa with 4 and 1 setae on proximal and distal endites, respectively; 3 setae present on each of proximal and distal coxal endites; basis bearing large claw ornamented with fine spinules along concave margin and bearing 2 unequal setae; endopod 3-segmented, with 2, 2, and 4 setae on first to third segments. Maxilliped (Fig. 8C) 4-segmented with setal formula 6, 2, 3, and 3; first segment partly subdivided by fold into proximal and distal parts bearing 4 and 2 setae, respectively.
Legs 1–4 with 3-segmented rami; armature formula as in family diagnosis. Outer basal seta of leg 1 large but outer basal seta on legs 2 to 4, small, all outer setae on basis naked (Fig. 8D–F). Inner distal spine on basis of leg 1 55 μm long and with smooth margins.
Leg 5 (Fig. 8G) 2-segmented; protopodal segment wider than long and clearly articulated from somite; exopodal segment about 1.9 times as long as wide (100×53 μm), outer margin convex, but inner margin straight; armed with 4 setae 205, 202, 69, and 149 μm in length from outermost to inner. Leg 6 represented by 1 spine and 1 seta in genital aperture.
Remarks.
Archinotodelphys cinctus
sp. nov.
is similar to
A. illgi
sp. nov
.
in having 5 setae (4 + 1) on the second endopodal segment of the antenna and 2, 2, and 4 setae respectively on the first to third endopodal segments of the maxilla. The body form, the shape of the genital double-somite, and the segmentation and setation of the maxilliped are also similar in these two species. However, they can readily be distinguished by the presence of 5 setae on the first endopodal segment of the mandible in
A. cinctus
sp. nov.
The possession of 5 setae is unique in the genus; most other species have 4 or 6 setae (see
Table 2
), with only a single new species,
A
.
nudus
sp. nov.
, bearing just a single seta. A total of 9 setae is carried on the endopod of the maxillule of
A
.
cinctus
sp. nov.
compared to
10 in
A. gurneyi
,
A. momus
sp. nov.
,
A. hexasetosus
sp. nov.
and
A. illgi
sp. nov.
, and
11 in
A. curtus
sp. nov.
and
A. polynesiensis
. These differences justify the establishment of a new species to accommodate the material from
Bathystyeloides enderbyanus
.
