- A1 with 12 segments, reaching the posterior border of the thoracic segment 3 (if bent backwards parallelly to prosome).
- Md with 2 spines different in thickeness and length on basis, both bearing sparse setules; endopod with 5 setae.
- Mx1 with 3 setae on basis and 2 slender, long setae on endopod.
- Number of outer spines of exopod P1-P4: 1, 1, 2; 1, 1, 3; 1, 1, 1; 0, 0, 1; all spines with hyaline membrane on their lateral edges.
- Spines of P1 (fig.12) with flexible whiplike extension each.
- Outer edges of exopodal segment 3 of P1-P3 serrate.
- Rndopodal segment 3 of P4 proximal seta (fig.15) slightly curved, longer and thicker than other seta and without flange on its smooth edge.
- Terminal segment of P5 (fig.16) with seta reaching beyond distal border of genital somite.

Nota Male:
- Ratio Prosome : Urosome = 1.48-1.61 : 1.
- Cephalosome (fig.17) protruded laterally into a flap extending beyond posterior border of thoracic segment 1; porezs signature of flap as in fig.18 (in 3 specimens).
- Caudal ramishorter than anal somite and 1.3-1.5 times longer than wide.
- Md with 5 setae on endopod; spines of basis more similar in length than those in female.
- Exopod of P1 with 3 spines not 2 as in female (fig.21).
- All setae of P1-P4 plumose.
