Macandrewella sewelli  Farran, 1936   (F,M)
Ref.:
Farran, 1936 a (p.106, Descr.F, figs.F); Sewell, 1948 (p.418); C.B. Wilson, 1950 (p.260, Descr.F,M, figs.F,M); Gopalakrishnan, 1973 (p.189, Table, Rem.); Bradford & al., 1983 (p.91)
Species Macandrewella sewelli - Plate 1 of morphological figuresIssued from : G.P. Farran in Great Barrier Reef Expedition 1928-1929, Scient. Rep., V, N°3, 1936. [p.106, Fig.17].
Female: a, habitus (dorsal); b, idem (left side); c, urosome (right side); d, 5th thoracic and genital segments (dorso-lateral).

Nota: Head and 1st thoracic segment fused, 4th and 5th separate but in dorsal view the separation is almost indistinguishable. Anal segment almost concealed by the preceding segment. Abdomen symmetrical except for a low dorso-lateral lobe on the right side of the hinder margin of the genital segment. Rostrum of a swollen forked plate ending in a short tapered filament on each side, distinctly marked lenticular spot at the base of the rostrum. A1 reaching to the end of the genital segment, segments 8-10 and 24-25 fused, segments 9 and 10 with indication of segmentation.
