and the striking dorsal macrosculpture is easily visible to the unaided eye (Fig. 6A). One of the Queensland Museum samples contained a mating pair (Fig. 6B) which I partially dissected (Fig. 6C). As expected, the telopodites were rotated 90° out of the gonocoxal cavity in which they normally lie. The curved distal portion of each telopodite (Fig. 5C) was fully inserted into the cavity anterior to the epigyne, but how much of the curve was actually in contact with the cyphopod could not be seen, and would be better investigated with fixed, sectioned material.
