Pakistanapseudes View in CoL C sp. nov.

Material examined. 1 damaged female (J58891), Stn MSL EG 49, Eastern Bass Strait , 15.1 km WSW OF Pt Ricardo, 37º51.38'S 148º28.14'E, 34 m depth, 26 September 1990, Smith-McIntyre Grab GoogleMaps .

Remarks. The body of this taxon is very elongate, much more so than, and thus quite different from, all the other described Australian species of Pakistanapseudes . Unfortunately, the single specimen is in very poor condition, with the only appendages being the cheliped and pereopods 1 and 2, and the pleon in particular is substantially damaged, so it does not warrant a proper description, nor naming, despite its being clearly a distinct and new species.
