REMARKS
Ethusa latidactyla is recognizable by its broad, rounded, pear-shaped carapace, the lateral borders of which are convex and the branchial region inflated ( Sakai 1976: pl. 23, fig. 2; 1965: pl. 11, fig. 2; Chen 1985: fig. 7; 1986: fig. 9.41; 1993: fig. 6; Chen & Sun 2002: fig. 105.1). A somewhat similar shape, however, is also characteristic of E. sexdentata ( Stimpson, 1858) , from which it differs by the presence of two conspicuous vertical rows of setae on each pterygostomial region (absent in E. sexdentata ), broadly round orbital sinuses (narrow, V-shaped in E. sexdentata [ Sakai 1937: fig. 1a; 1976: fig. 26a]). Chen (1985: 189), who listed other more subtle differences between the two species, was actually comparing E. latidactyla with E. abbreviata n. s p., n o t E. s e x d e n t a t a (s e e s y n o n y m y o f E. abbreviata n. sp. above).
Differences between E. latidactyla and E. indica , another large-size species, are mentioned in the Remarks of E. indica (see above).
A specimen from MUSORSTOM 1 (Phi- lippines) identified as Ethusa aff. hirsuta by Serène & Vadon (1981) and not available for examination is possibly E. latidactyla since two specimens of this species (and of no other species of Ethusa ) were identified from the same station ( MNHN-B 18176).
