Etymology. Alluding to the long simple setae on the anterior corners of the pereonites and basis of pereopods 2 and 3.
Remarks. Kalliapseudes longisetosus , n. sp occurs in the same general coastal region as K. obtusifrons and, although these two species are somewhat similar K. longisetosus is distinguished from K. obtusifrons by the following characters: 1) the nature of the terminal spine of the mandibular palp (naked and not as long and narrow as in K. obtusifrons ), 2) the armature of the chelae (more irregular spinulation on the cutting edges), and 3) the setation of the dactylus of pereopod 6 (only one distal seta). The new species differs from all other known species of Kalliapseudes by having very long setae on the anterior corners of the pereonites (about as long as the first pereonite) and the basis of the second and third pereopods (almost as long as basis), and by having a needle-like tip on the dactylus of pereopods 2 and 3 ( Drumm and Heard, 2006a).
