Antenna 1 only about 70 percent as long as antenna 2; flagellum with about 21-articulate, ornamented with aesthetascs ventrally; accessory flagellum absent. Antenna 2 about half as long as body; gland cone of peduncular article 2 broad, extending beyond of peduncle article 3; flagellum long and thin with about 28 articles.
Mandible, molar triturative, each with ragged seta; lacinia mobilis serrate and clearly distinct; palp with article 2 about twice as broad as article 3, latter slightly falcate. Lower lip lacking inner lobes, mandibular lobes subtruncate and apically fringed with small setae. Maxilliped inner plate with apicolateral spine separated from 2 medioapical spines by gap and hollow; outer plate with facial setules in 1 row and a few scattered; palp article 2 broad. Maxilla 1, palp article 2 stout armed with several short teeth apically. Maxilla 2, outer plate broader than inner plate, both with plumose setae along margin.
Gnathopod 1-2 small, subequal in size to each other, basis scarcely setose posteroventrally; propodus long, thin, sub-rectangular, palm evenly oblique.
Gnathopod 1 carpus sub-triangular, posterior margin short, lobe extended; dactylus not serrate on grasping margin. Gnathopod 2 similar to gnathopod 1. Pereopods 1-7 elongate. Pereopods 3-4 homopodous; merus slightly expanded posterodistally; carpus about ½ the length of propodus. Pereopods 5-7 homopodous; basis expanded roundly. Pereopod 7 similar but longer than pereopod 6; basis more elongate than pereopod 6.
Uropod 1 peduncle spinose on lateral margin, almost 2 times as long as outer ramus, one medium sized robust seta at distal part; outer ramus about 0.7 times as long as inner ramus, apex bifid, armed with several apical spines, one elongate. Uropod 2 extending beyond telson; peduncle subequal in length to inner ramus, spinose, and with one long robust seta at distal end; outer ramus almost 0.6 times as long as inner ramus with several apical robust setae; inner ramus apically bifid with several robust setae along margin. Uropod 3 peduncle short; rami foliaceous, subequal in length, marginally spinose and setose.
