Nota: Head and 1st thoracic segment fused, 4th and 5th incompletely separate. Rostral filaments absent. A1 23-segmented (segments 8 and 9 fused), reaching to 5th thoracic segment. Exopods of P1 to P4 3-segmented, endopod of P1 1-segmented, P2 2-segmented, P3 and P4 3-segmented. Scattered spines on terminal endopodal segments of P2 to P4. P5 3-segmented with 1 terminal and 1 internal spine on distal segment.
Family and Genus to reconsider. For Grice & Hulsemann (1967) this species is similar to Scolecithrix ctenopus Giesbrecht (1888, 1892), but the two may be distinguished.
