Monstrillopsis fosshageni Suarez-Morales & Dias, 2001 (M) | |
| | | | | | | Ref.: | | | Suarez-Morales & Dias, 2001 a (p.79, Descr.M, figs.M); Suarez-Morales & al., 2006 (p.102, Tab.1) |  Issued from : E. Suarez-Morales & C. Dias in Bull. Inst. R. Scienc. Nat. Belqique, 2001, 71. [p.77, Figs.35-37]. Male (from 20°15'56''S, 40°13'15''W): 35, habitus (dorsal; A1 cut shoret); 36, habitus (lateral); 37, left A1 (dorsal). Nota: - Cephalothorax representing about 47% of body length (caudal rami excluded). - Oral papilla much reduced, represented by rounded , low protuberance located 0.24 of way back along ventral surface of cephalothorax. - Ocelli present, very reduced, unpigmented, rounded in dorsal view. - Cephalic sensillae not seen. - Two chitinized, nipple-like cuticular processes located ventrally between oral papilla and antennular bases (arrowed in fig.38). Above these nipple-like processes, lies a large conical protuberance similar to that described for the male of Cymbasoma (cf. longispinosum). - Posterior margin of cephalothorax with cuticular process on dorsal surface. Process represented by a row of 4 transverse teeth-like projections directed backwards; near their distal end lies a pair of divergent subtriangular processes apparently borne on a common base (see fig.41). Another sililar, but much reduced process is presenrt on posterior margin of 2nd pedigerous somite (see fig.35). - A1 relatively long, 5-segmented, clearly separated, representing close to 94% of the cephalothorax length. Length ratio of segments 11.9 : 26.2 : 14.4 : 24.7 : 22.8 = 100. - 1st pedigerous thoracic somite incorporated into cephalothorax. - P5 absent from 5th pedigerous somite. - Genital somite with medial ventral protuberance which is base of a long genital apparatus, nearly cylindrical but having 2 terminal lobes widely divergent. A rounded process is present between bases of lobes. Inner margins of lobes smooth, naked. - Urosome consisting of probably 4 segments: 5th pedigerous somite, genital somite (with genital complex) and 1 free -anal- somite. - Caudal rami missing in the specimen.
