Material.

ZSMA20071498: female; Rovinj, Croatia; 04.2004. ZSMA20071499: male; Rovinj, Croatia; 05.05.2007; 0-2 m; Corallina elongata J.Ellis & Solander, 1786.

Remarks.

According to Dohrn (1881) and Bamber (2010) each lateral process and coxa 1 is armed with one protuberance. Here, in the males the lateral process 1 and the coxa 1 of the first leg has two protuberances (Fig. 42D, F), the remaining legs correspond with previous observations (e.g. Fig. 42E, G). The females are without such protuberances (Fig. 44C, D).
