Material examined

Philippines: MUSORSTOM 3, stn CP91, 14 ° 009N, 120 ° 189E, 190–203 m, 31 May 1985, 1 „ (MNHN-Na 14892) .

Remarks

Previously known only from the type material. The single specimen has a rostral dentition of 9/4 and lacks any trace of an epigastric spine or tubercle. The cornea is moderately large. The minor second pereiopod only is preserved, the palm of the chela is feebly, minutely tuberculate ventrally. The third pereiopod has the dactyl with a small, slender accessory tooth and the telson has two pairs of medium-sized dorsal spines.

Distribution

Type locality: SW of Manila Bay , Philippines, 191– 188 m. Also recorded from Loyalty Islands .
