Holotype 1♀ (MABIK CR00235287) dissected on four slides. Sampled by a grab on a fishing boat on 16 Feb 2008. Diagnosis. Description of female. Total body length 390 µm (Fig. 1A); largest width measured at posterior margin of cephalic shield: 67 µm ; body cylindrical, slightly depressed dorsoventrally; urosome gradually tapering posteriorly; whole body very hyaline. Rostrum triangular, fused with cephalic shield; with 2 small sensilla. Cephalothorax bell-shaped; pleural areas weakly developed and posterolateral angles rounded; posterior margin smooth, without distinct hyaline frill. Figure 1.

Mandible (Fig. 3A). Coxa with well-developed gnathobase bearing 1 pinnate seta at dorsal corner and 6 major spinous overlapping teeth; palp biramous, comprising basis, 1-segmented exp and 2-segmented enp; basis widening distally, with 3 bare setae; exp with 2 distal setae; enp long; enp-1 same as long as exp, with 2 bare setae; enp-2 with 5 basally fused setae at apex. Maxillule (Fig. 3B). Praecoxal arthrite well-developed, with 6 spines, 2 pinnate setae, and 2 juxtaposed slender setae; coxa with cylindrical endite bearing 3 distal bare setae; basis cylindrical; endites fused, collectively bearing 5 distal bare setae; exp 1-segmented, small, with 2 bare setae; enp 1-segmented, with 4 bare setae distally.
