Description
Pseudolamprops spinifer Gamô, 1989b
Pseudolamprops spinifer Gamô, 1989b: 95–101, figs 7–10.
Type material. Holotype: NSMT–Cr9647, subadult male. Allotype: NSMT Cr–9650, subadult female. Okinawa Trough, 26°05.7’– 26°04.4’N, 125°34.6’– 125°34.1’E. Not seen.
Diagnosis. Carapace dorsal surface covered with short spines. Maxilliped 1 with unique dactylus, distinctly longer than propodus and slender or “club shaped” (Gamô 1989b).
Depth. 2060–2065 m.
Distribution. Okinawa Trough, East China Sea, 26°05.7’– 26°04.4’N, 125°34.6’– 125°34.1’E.
Remarks. This species has only been collected once, by Gamô (1989b). This species can be distinguished from Pseudolamprops abyssi by the pattern of spines on the carapace. In P. spinifer, the spines are not organized into lines, they are scattered on the dorsal surface of the carapace, while in P. abyssi there are fewer spines and they are organized into distinct lines.
