Rostrum broadly rounded. Corneas reduced, located ventrolaterally on ultimate peduncular segments. Ocular acicles simple, basally contiguous. Crista dentata well developed, and 1 accessory tooth. Chelipeds subequal Sternite of somite XII (thoracomere 6, pereopod 3) divided into anterior and posterior lobes by distinct, membranous hinge. Pereopod 4 semichelate, propodal rasp with 1–2 rows of corneous scales, no preungual process. Male unknown. Female with single gonopore on coxa of left pereopod 3; pleopod 1 paired, modified; pleopods 2–5. Uropods asymmetrical.
