, fig. 4(a) is described as that of the female and fig. 4(d) as that of an immature male. However, there appears to be a slight confusion. Chiltons fig. 4(a) depicts an adult male and fig. 4(d) shows an immature male or female. Chilton appears to have been unaware of the sexual dimorphism which this species shows. Chiltons fig. 4(k) is likely to be the second pleopod of the specimen marked 4a and not that of 4d.
