Caudal ramus 1.6 times as long as wide; bearing 6 setae (setae II, III spiniform, unipinnate along medial margin, other setae IV-VII setiform and plumose.

Posterior wall of medial concavity with 2 long and distinctly sclerotized dentiform processes and 2 short flat elements (fig.2F), posterior surface of each lobe with 2 secretory pores. P5 with small free segment representing exopod, and very long outer basal ( = protopodal) seta reaching beyond paired secretory pores on genital double-somite (arrowed in fig.2A). Exopod with long outer seta, reaching almost as far as genital apertures, and short inner seta. P6 represented by external operculum closing off each genital aperture, armed with spine and small spinous process.

Proximal endopodal segment ornamented with row of denticles along inner margin and spinular row of convex outer margin ; armature arranged in mid-segment group of 4 elements (seta III spiniform and pectinate, setae I, II and IV naked, seta I shortest), and distal group of 7 elements (setae A-D unipinnate, setae E, F, G unornamented, seta G about 2/3 the length of seta F). Md represented by flattened gnathobase with 5 elements (ventral seta a stout, with row of long setules along dorsal margin, these gradually shortening distally ; ventral blade b broad and tapering distally, ornamented with row of short spinules on posterior surface ; dorsal blade c almost as long as ventral blade b, with several dentiform processes along entire dorsal and distal margins ; setae d short and bipinnate ; seta e longer than seta d and setose). Mx1 weakly bilobed. Inner lobe ( = praecoxal arthrite) with 3 setae unequal in length (innermost seta shortest, sparsely ornamented with spinules, located at some distance from others ; outermost seta strong, and longer than other 2 setae, fringed with few spinules. Outer lobe with 4 setae (outermost seta setiform and pectinate, longer than the other 3 setae ; seta next to innermost seta unipinnate ; innermost seta naked and shortest). Mx2 2-segmented, comprising syncoxa and allobasis. Allobasis produced distally into slightly curved claw with 2 rows of very strong spinules along medial margin ; outer slender seta extending to just below the tip of allobasal claw ; proximal medial margin with naked seta and curved spine with 2 rows of spinules along medial margin and single row of slender spinules along lateral margin. Mxp 4-segmented, syncoxa unarmed. Basis robust, with 2 spiniform, bipinnate elements on palmar margin, distal one about 1.5 times as long as proximal one ; surface of basis ornamented with fringe of fine spinules between distal seta and articulation with endopod and row of short spinules between proximal and distal setae. Proximal endopdal segment unarmed. Distal endopodal segment drawn out into long curved claw, with strong spinules along entire concave margin, with small naked seta on outer proximal margin and unipectinate spine basally fused to inner proximal corner of claw.

*Body length (including caudal ramus) measured in lateral view. | | | | Rem.: | For Wi & al. (2012, p.848) this species is closely related to T. dentipes, T. elongata, and T. giesbrechti, together forming the dentipes-subgroup. Among the 3 described species of the dentipes-subgroup, T. constricta is most similar to T. giesbrechti. | | | Last update : 06/04/2015 | |
