Remarks:
This species described by Ren and Huang (1991) was transferred to
Palabriaphoxus
by
De
Broyer and JaŻdŻewski (1993). This genus had been erected by Gurjanova (1977) to include
Harpinia palabria
J.L. Barnard, 1961
. Therefore, the genus actually contains two species, both easily distinguished from each other by the setation of antennae, the shape of coxae and peraeopods, and the length of uropod 3 rami.
