. These five taxa are indeed similar in the shape of the frontal margin of the carapace and also many features of the major and minor chelipeds, as well as the walking legs (third to fifth pereiopods). The most important morphological characters uniting these taxa are: (1) the well-developed rostrum and orbital teeth; (2) the major chela palm with well-developed crests and deep grooves, including a superior transverse groove; (3) the major chela dactylus with a greatly reduced plunger; (4) the major chela pollex not or only feebly reduced; (5) the meri of the third and fourth pereiopods without a sharp distoventral tooth; (6) the second article of the antennular peduncle slender (length to width ratio&gt;3); and (7) the dorsal margin of the cheliped meri without spiniform setae.
