. The carapace proportions of the five specimens vary rather substantially. The holotype male has a width to length ratio of 1.49, which is similar to that of two paratype females (1.46 and 1.51). The two paratype males (both larger than the holotype) are distinctly less broad, with a width to length ratio of 1.38 and 1.41, respectively. They, however, agree in all other characters, with the two males possessing the same structures of the front, anterolateral margin, pleon and G1. As such, we are confident they are conspecific. The H-shaped gastric and cardiac grooves are deep in the adult specimens but in the smallest female (13.2 × 9.0 mm) which is still subadult, these grooves are relatively shallower and less distinct. The condition of the eyes has been described as fused in many rhizopines but it is not easy to determine the condition in some. In

, the eyes are immovable in one paratype male (18.3´13.0 mm) but slightly mobile in the holotype and other paratypes, and we are not sure if its due to the preservation as the specimens had been preserved in formalin which has made the carapaces relatively softer. The tip of the cornea, however, appears to have a tiny spot of pigment in all the specimens.

. The specimens collected were light brown and covered with a fine brown sediment; suggesting that like many rhizopines, they are luteophilous in habits, i.e. living in mud and fine sediment, with the waters usually turbid (see Ng 1987b, 1990).
