Description
Genus Forcipatia Larsen & Shimomura, 2007
Forcipatia Larsen & Shimomura, 2007: 19 –20 (diagnosis and key to species).
Leptognathia G.O. Sars, 1882 (partim): Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970: 363 –364. Larsen, 2005: 200.
Species included (Japanese waters, Kurile-Kamchatka Trench and Japan Trench species in bold): F. longimanus Larsen, 2005, Gulf of Mexico, 336–1875 metres; F. rotundicauda Kudinova-Pasternak, 1970.
Diagnosis (after Larsen & Shimomura). Female. Leptognathiid with cheliped fixed finger and dactylus elongated. Uropodal exopod uniarticulated.
Remarks. This genus is relatively easy to recognize owing to the cheliped morphology, which approaches that of some pseudotanaid taxa. The mandibular structure is very similar to the type genus Leptognathia, with a crenulate margin of both incisors. Unlike the previous leptognathiid genus (Biarticulata), Forcipatia is a small, monophyletic taxon.
