Syrrhoe psychrophila Monod
Syrrhoe crenulata var. psychrophila Monod, 1926: 54, figure 52 A-H.
Syrrhoe psychrophila. Schellenberg, 1931, 159, figure 83.—K. H. Barnard, 1932: 149–150, figure 87.
DIAGNOSIS.—Head apparently not protuberant, lateral cephalic lobe apparently sharp; eyes present (Schellenberg); article 1 of antenna 1 not elongate, with mediodistal tooth, article 2 probably without tooth; coxae 1–2 presumably extended evenly but K. H. Barnard and Schellenberg state coxa 2 tapering at least anteroventrally and coxa 1 expanded slightly apically vide Schellenberg; posterior lobe of coxa 3 presumably about one-third or one-half total coxal height; gnathopodal palms with one serrate spine; article 2 of pereopod 5 slightly expanded and ventrally truncate (Schellenberg), posterior teeth small (K. H. Barnard), pleonites 1–3 presumably serrate dorsally (K. H. Barnard states pereonite 7 smooth); epimeron 3 posteriorly serrate on lower two-thirds, long smooth gap between there and dorsal serrations; uropod 3 presumably not exceeding uropods 1–2, peduncle presumably short; telson elongate, cleft three-fourths its length.
SPECIAL CHARACTER.—Coxa 2 about two-thirds as broad as long (see S. affinis).
Antarctica, about 136 to 400 m.
