, the first pereopod has the anterior margin of the basis armed with a large distinctive spiniform seta and a single well-developed spiniform seta on the anterodistal margin of the carpus, whereas, on “Parapseudid? species A” the basis lacks a large spiniform seta on the anterior margin and the anterodistal margin of the carpus is armed with two large, distinctive, spiniform setae. Pending the descriptions of additional species attributable to this genus, the specific or generic importance of these pereopod characters remains to be determined.
