Right mandible (Fig. 3G View Figure 3 ), similar to left one, except incisor 6-toothed, followed by 1 serrulate and 2 smooth plates.
Maxilla 1 (Fig. 3H View Figure 3 ), inner plate absent; outer plate with 6 stout setal teeth apically; palp biarticulate, distal article with 3 apical robust setae and 1 subapical seta.
Maxilla 2 (Fig. 3I View Figure 3 ), inner plate with 2 long and 1 short setae apically; outer plate with 2 long and 1 short simple setae apically.
Maxilliped (Fig. 3J View Figure 3 ), inner plate small, with 2 simple setae apically; outer plate much larger than inner plate, with 3 simple setae apically and 3 simple setae medially; palp 4-articulate, article 2 longest, with 2 simple setae medially, distal article falcate, with a row of setules along inner margin.
Gnathopod 1 (Fig. 4A View Figure 4 ) small; propodus subrectangular, palm nearly straight with unequal simple setae, defined by 2 robust (grasping) setae proximally; dactylus falcate, bifid, with tiny accessory setae distally; length ratio of 6 articles = 1.00: 0.25: 0.43: 0.48: 0.84: 0.73.
Gnathopod 2 (Fig. 4B View Figure 4 ) attached midanterior margin of pereonite 2; basis elongate, subequal to propodus, slightly widening distally, with pointed projection on anteroproximal margin and subpointed projection on anterodistal portion; propodus massive, convex dorsally, width 0.5 × length, with a small robust (grasping) seta on proximal projection, palm irregular and serrulate, with a poison tooth mesially; dactylus falcate, inner margin weakly serrulate; length ratio of 6 articles = 1.00: 0.23: 0.18: 0.14: 1.13: 1.05.

Gnathopod 2 (Fig. 5B View Figure 5 ) similar to that of male, but propodus more rounded than that of male. Abdomen (Fig. 5C View Figure 5 ) similar to that of male, but with a pair of plumose setae.
Remarks.
We compared the new species, Pseudaeginella carinaspinosa sp. nov., and related species of the genus Pseudaeginella (Table 1 View Table 1 ). Pseudaeginella carinaspinosa sp. nov. is similar to P. biscaynensis (McCain, 1968) and P. montoucheti (Quitete, 1971) in the following features: (1) head with an anteriorly curved middorsal projection; (2) antenna 2, peduncular article 2 with ventrodistal projection; and (3) pereonites 1-5 with dorsal projections. However, our new species is easily distinguished from P. biscaynensis and P. montoucheti by the following features: (1) gnathopod 2, basis with an anteroproximal projection; (2) pereonites 1-6 with strong dorsal projections; and (3) pereonite 6 with middorsal projection. Pseudaeginella carinaspinosa sp. nov. is also similar to P. colombiensis in the following features: (1) mandibular palp, article 3 with robust setae; (2) pereopods 3 and 4 with 2 setae. However, P. carinaspinosa is distinguished from P. colombiensis by the following features: (1) pereonites 2 and 5 with middorsal projections; (2) mandibular palp, setal formula 1-5-1; and (3) gnathopod 2, basis with an anteroproximal projection.
Etymology.
The species name is derived from the Latin carina (=back) and spinosa (= with spinose projection) with reference to the distinct dorsal spinose projection.
Distribution.
South Korea (Geomun-Island, Jeju-Island, Namhyeongje-Island).
