Remarks.
In the original publication, only one collection number was assigned to the ZMH - K paratypes, even though the specimens were collected at five different stations. Here, we assigned a new collection number to four lots, including one paratype that is lost (see above); the original number given by Mühlenhardt-Siegel (2011 a) is retained by the first lot listed in the paratype section.
Diagnosis.
Carapace, dorsomedian line with 5–7 teeth; a maximum of 3 teeth laterally; pseudorostrum with 2 tiny teeth. Pereonites 3–5, posterior margin smooth. Antenna 1, peduncle article 3 shorter than article 2 (after Mühlenhardt-Siegel 2011 a).
Distribution.
Southern Ocean, 2119–3690 m depth.
