Head lobes marginally acute in male, apex just sharper than in female. About 21 plumose setae on uropod 3 medial margin.

Etymology. Derived from the Greek, Lema , -tos (n) — temper of mind, will, courage, audacity; and the Greek, arete (f)— excellence, goodness, virtue; with reference to the motto on the coat of arms granted to the name ‘Bamber’ depicting two red chevrons between four black fleurs-de-lis on a silver shield, the crest being a red bulls head. The motto, “ Fortis et egregious ” translates as “Bold and excellent”, terms which can certainly be used to describe our long-standing friend and colleague Roger Bamber.

Remarks. This species can be distinguished from others in the genus by the quadrate expansion of the basis of pereopod five which is truncate distally.

Depth range. 2500–4850 m. Most records are at abyssal or lower slope depths.

Distribution. North Atlantic Ocean between the Demerara Abyssal Plain and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 54°N.
