| | | | | | | Ref.: | | | Brodsky, 1950 (1967) (p.300, figs.F,M); Minoda, 1971 (p.35); Vaupel-Klein, 1970 (p.4, 34, Rem.); Chihara & Murano, 1997 (p.837, tab.6); Markhaseva, 2001 (p.47, figs.F,M) |  issued from : E.L. Markhaseva in Zoosyst. Rossica, 2001, 9 (1). [p.63, Figs.111-120]. Female (from off cape Shipunsky, Kamchatka): 111, habitus (dorsal view); 112, cephalosome (right lateral view); 113, posterior somite of prosome and urosome (dorsal view); 114, idem (left lateral view); 115, genital somite (ventral view); 116, idem (right lateral view); 117, first leg (coxopod and basipod); 118, first leg (exopod); 119, first leg (endopod); 120, first legs. Nota : Prosome nearly wice as long as urosome. Rostrum of 2 well developed filaments. Genital somite 1.7-1.8 times as long as wide, asymmetrical, with round spermathecae situated asymmetrically, left one directly above right one. Caudal rami about 2 times as long as wide. A1 24-segmented, reaching anal somite or nearly the middle length of caudal rami. Oral parts and Mxp as described for M. pseudoasymmetrica. P1 very similar to that of M. pseudoasymmetrica.
