Description
(Figs. 5 A-E)
Generic Differential Diagnosis (modified after De Deckker 1979a and George and Martens 2003): Valves rounded in lateral view, externally covered with polygonal elevation and rounded or pointed tubercles (Figs. 5A, B, C, D,). Ventral side of carapace (Fig. 5E) with anterior lip-like expansions of valve margins, near mouth; large part of ventral surface plate-like, set with 2-3 rows of rounded elevations and bordered by an elevated outer list. Each valve with prominent, rounded and opaque antero-dorsal eye-tubercles (Figs. 5C, D). Mandibular palp with 6 plumose internal setae and about 10 apical setae on terminal segment. Maxillula with 6 zahnborsten on third endite and two very large setae near first endite. T 2 without d-setae, penultimate segment divided, terminal segment with one long claw and two subapical setae, the latter unusually long in at least some species. T 3 with terminal segment separate from penultimate segment. Caudal ramus with distal seta.
Type locality and type material: Swamp 2 km east of Princetown, near Port Campbell, Victoria, Australia, 38°41'0"S 142°09'0"E: Neotypes (ò, ñ), NHMS - Xe 19841, 19842.
Material examined here: several dozen specimens, collected by P. De Deckker and K. Martens from a pond near Good Hope resort, near Canberra (ACT /NSW - coordinates.: 35°6'26"S 148°51'670"E) on 25.03.2013.
