Bennelongia australis View in CoL lineage

Remarks

The diagnostic characters provided for this lineage in Martens et al. (2012) are still valid after the revision of eastern Australian Bennelongia species. The combination of a large carapace, intermediate anteroventral beak-like structure of the LV, presence of an anteroventral lapel on the RV, rounded dorsal margin and pronounced anterior rostrum in dorsal view will still enable the diagnosis of this lineage amongst all described Bennelongia species.
