The ventral margin distal to the genital opening furnished with hairs ; the genital, 2nd and 3rd segments fringed with fine teeth on the distal margin.
Caudal rami about 2 times as long as wide.
1st segment of A1 furnished Endopod of A2 about 1.2 times as long as exopod.
Terminal spine of exopod of P2 with about 30 serrations..
Terminal spine of exopod of P3 with about 26 serrations
P5 2-segmented ; distal segment with 3 spines, the inner marginal spine about 2 times as long as the terminal one, and rather finely serrated on the outer border, the outer marginal spine is short, about ¼ the length of the terminal spine, and arises distal to the line of origin of the inner marginal spine.

Male: g, forehead (lateral); h, exopod of P2 (part.); i, P5.
Nota : Cephalothorax and urosome in proportional lengths 65 : 35.
Lateral margins of the head constricted much in front ; the frontal margin of the head obliquely rounded in lateral view.
Th5 and Th4 separate (clearly seen from the side).
Urosme 5-segmented ; urosomal segments and caudal rami in proportional lengths 9 :35 :23 :23 :1 :9 = 100.
Caudal rami about 1.4 times as long as wide (15 :11).
A1 19-segmented ( segments8 to 12 fused, 13-14 fused, 20-21 fused, and 24-25 fused).
Terminal spine of exopod of P2 with about 40 serrations.

Rem.: Méso-bathypélagique. Dans un trait vertical 2000-1000 m (Harding, 1974).
Sampling depth (Antarct., sub-Antarct.) : 0-1000-3000 m. 540-580 m (Pipe & Coombs, 1980 at 60°N, 07°W).
L'espèce présente une certaine variabilité.
Park (1982) suggère, en se fondant sur les dimensions, certaines synonymies entre S. major et S. medius . Dans ces conditions la répartition géographique de ces deux espèces demeure confuse, si elles ne sont pas synonymes comme l'estime Bradford.
