Trunk smooth, compact, strongly arched in lateral view with an overall hunched appearance, without spiniform projections, lateral processes typically separated by about half own basal diameter or less, often separated from trunk by suture lines separating trunk and lateral processes, cephalon strongly angled downward from the trunk, anterior region swollen, narrowing sharply to a short, constricted neck, lateral processes about as long as their greatest width, narrowly but distinctly separated. Abdomen short, often shield-shaped, not reaching beyond fourth lateral processes. Ocular tubercle moderately low, with laid-back appearance, apical surface sloping downward towards anterior, dorsal papillae usually conspicuous. Proboscis tip mamilliform, with setiferous fringe variably present on outer surface. Palps absent. Chelifores directed forward and downward from the cephalon, hanging vertically or facing backwards, scapes angled outwards, with conspicuous proximal constriction present in females; chelae carried in front of proboscis and transversely opposed to scapes, palm large, often swollen, fingers digitiform and variably opposed to palm, margins heavily sclerotized, sometimes with marginal lobe on one or both fingers. Oviger strigilis spines compound, terminal claw distally blunt or acute, with stout, saw-like teeth fringing both distal margins. Legs smooth or with spinules, surface rarely irregular. Tibia 2 longer than tibia 1 and femur, auxiliary claws absent. Femoral cement glands not evident. Genital pores conspicuous. Juvenile moveable fingers highly modified; proboscis tapering distally, tubiform.

, body patterns in the genus are few and mostly restricted to bandings and variable red striping on predominantly yellow bodies. Based on personal observations by the author, the majority of species are monochromatic; typically yellow, orange/brown and shades of red. Observations of colour changes attributed to diet are not uncommon but there are examples in species from other families where a colour change takes place independently of gut content. In these examples the actual colour patterns mostly remain stable. The dominant colour forms of

The relatively few and isolated records in tropical waters suggest a northward migration perhaps facilitated by eddies and localized near-shore currents that avoid the predominant north-south flowing currents along the Australian coastline; the East Australian current and the Leeuwin current along the west coast.</paragraph>

Based on our present limited knowledge and because of the dramatic morphological changes that take place between the subadult and adult stages it will be difficult to establish the true identity of these forms on which this species was based. The status of this species would best be resolved by molecular means but given the age and small size of the specimens this may not be achievable. The species is assigned to
