Diagnosis. Carapace with single incomplete ventral lateral ridge, without setae, dorsal crest entire. Telson 0.8 length of uropod peduncles, without lateral setae, 5 terminal setae. Uropod exopod broken. Adult male unknown.

In H. glabrus the telson is shorter than the uropod peduncles, while in both H. californicus and H. pacificus the telson is equal to or longer than the uropod peduncles.
