. It seems important that the size differences between the thoracic and abdominal segments are very small: starting with the metathorax, their length is approximately the same and half the length of the prothorax (measured from the photograph in the original description). The rather narrow abdominal segments VVII (0.30.4 the length of the prothorax) look strongly deformed in the photographs of the impression, while the following segments VIIIIX already show the normal length, which is half the prothorax length. Consequently, only thoracic segments I and II differ in size from the other segments and this trait is also common among Isopoda.
