Espèce Maemonstrilla turgida - Planche 11 de figures morphologiquesissued from : M.J. Grygier & S. Ohtsuka in Zool. J. Linnean Soc., 2008, 152. [p.477, Fig.13, B].
B, ovigerous female (neotype from Sesoko Island).
photomicrographs of preserved specimen.
Scale bar = 0.500 mm.
Nota For the authors the unusual direction of the ovigerous spines suggests that species of Maemonstrilla practise subthoracic brooding. Although it is conceivable that the spines point forward only after the final moult and bend backwards to the 'normal' position when the eggs are deposited, several exemples refute this. A few eggs (about 0.023 mm in diameter) were found attached to the anteriorly pointing spines of two specimens (see fig.25D), and there were two large clusters (part of a single larger original mass ?) on the spines of another specimen of this species. A contrario all three specimens of M. polka bore very large egg masses held beneath and matching in length, the cephalothorax and metasome. M/ okame also were carrying eggs beneath the thorax.

Rem.: After Martin Thompson & Meiyappan (1977) the slight variations noted in the specimens described from Minicoy compared to the type material may be due to the geographical variations in the species.
For Grygier & Ohtsuka (2008, p.500) the unidentified Monstrilla figured by Krishnaswamy (1953) from Kundugal Channel (India) seems to be a female of Maemonstrilla turgida or a similar species.
Grygier & Ohtsuka judged that M. pustulata Suarez-Morales & Dias, 2001 from Brazil shows 'some affinities' to M. turgida, i.e. a similar cephalothoracic shape and a bilobed female P5 with 3 + 1 setation; but they notedseveral differences, especially the opposed direction of the ovigerous spines, and did not press a case for a phyletic connection.
