Description

Biarticulata parelegans (Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970)

Leptognathia parelegans Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970: 358 –359, fig.11.

Biarticulata paraelegans [sic] Kudinova-Pasternak, 1976: Larsen & Shimomura, 2007: 19.

Remarks. A small (1.8 mm) species, which is poorly described. The pereonites are of different shapes, the pleotelson is shown to be slightly narrower than the pleon and long pereopodal spiniform setae are present on the merus (pereopods 3 and 6) and carpus (pereopods 1 and 3). Recorded from the Kurile-Kamchatka Trench (Kudinova-Pasternak 1970), at 5240 metres but not recorded in the present material.
