. Carapace fronto-orbital width less than three-fourths maximum width of carapace (including lateral extent of anterolateral teeth), front wider than orbit; dorsal surface slightly convex, distinct areolations separated by smooth furrows, dorsal surface otherwise with uniform coarse granulation broken by a few transverse ridges and enlarged granules; short epigastric ridge oblique, hepatic ridge longer, weakly arched, transverse epibranchial ridge well developed, broadly arched; anterolateral margin usually with 5 well-defined teeth, first (= outer orbital angle) small, angular, well-separated from lobiform subangular to rounded second; third tooth strongly developed, lateral margin arched, sharply angular to spiniform tip directed anteriorly; fourth tooth and much smaller fifth sharply angular to spiniform, tips directed anterolaterally (fifth sometimes obsolescent in young); subhepatic tubercle below margin usually formed by one or more enlarged, raised, rounded or spiniform granules. Eyestalk slightly elongate, heavy, not narrowed terminally, ending in globular, rounded cornea, corneal diameter equal to or exceeding greatest width of eyestalk shaft. Chelipeds distinctly heterochelous in most specimens, dorsally covered by acute to subacute granules, especially on ridges and article margins, often densest on minor cheliped, variably extended onto at least proximal upper half of palm external surface, becoming weaker distally and ventrally; propodus upper surface with longitudinal furrow of palm positioned between inner superior crest of enlarged granules and outer crest of slightly smaller granules; carpus with depressed furrow distolaterally, superior surface with cover of regularly spaced coarse acute to subacute large granules or short spines, inner corner with two strong spines, distal the larger, major chela with dactylus opposable margin bearing enlarged, basal tooth. Ambulatory pereopod merus with superior margin armed by defined row of well separated short but erect (often weakly hooked) spinules. Male first gonopod (G1) with patch of minute subterminal spinules, and another of enlarged subterminal spines directed proximally, apex hooked, directing opening of terminal infundibulum laterally to posterolaterally in young to strongly proximally in mature. Female gonopore (= vulva) large, occupying most of subpleonal length of sixth thoracic sternite. Applicable GenBank sequence accession numbers from Thoma

Carapace (Fig. 1A) weakly convex, distinctly wider than long, dorsal regions well defined by shallow grooves, raised surfaces granulate, granules dense and largest in hepatic region and anterior of frontal region, forming weakly defined rows; frontal margin bilobed, lined by dense row of granules, median fissure distinctly V-shaped, lobes subtruncate to very broadly convex, lateral tooth subangular to lobiform, terminated laterally in deep antennal sinus offset ventrally from supraorbital margin; supraorbital margin granulate, forming distinct tooth mesially above antennal sinus, median and lateral fissures shallow, obscure, marked by distinct breaks in marginal granulation. Anterolateral teeth well developed, first (outer orbital) acutely angular, separated by shallow sinus from lobiform second; third and fourth broadly triangular, some granules of margins often enlarged to form small ancillary teeth, tips corneous, tip of slightly larger third curved to direct anteriorly, tip of fourth less curved, directed anterolaterally; fifth tooth distinct, much smaller than preceding, variably developed, acute to subacute. Pterygostomial and subhepatic regions (Fig. 1B, C) coarsely granulate, distinct but variable subhepatic tubercle evident as raised area below margin, usually surmounted or formed by one or more enlarged subacute to spiniform granules; pterygostomial ridge slightly raised, granulate. Branchiostegite ventrolateral margin, below anterolateral teeth, weakly concave above coxa of each ambulatory leg.
