Basal antennular article with distolateral spines. Antennal peduncle consisting of 5 articles; acicle present or absent. Mandibular cutting edge calcified, strongly serrated along its length. Maxilliped 1 without epipod; exopod flagellum present or absent, not annulated. Maxilliped 3 to pereopod 4 each with 2 arthrobranchs (well-developed or vestigial on maxilliped 3). Pereopod 5 with 1 arthrobranch only. Pereopods 2–4 with pleurobranch. Male pleopods 1 and 2 present. Male pleopods 3–5 vestigial or absent.
Type genus. Chirostylus Ortmann, 1892, by original designation.
Composition. Chirostylus Ortmann, 1892, Gastroptychus Caullery, 1896, Hapaloptyx Stebbing, 1920, Uroptychodes Baba, 2004, Uroptychus Henderson, 1888.
Remarks. Pleopods 3–5 are absent in most male chirostylids, but are vestigial in some species of Gastroptychus (e.g., G. rogeri Baba, 2000, and G. investigatoris (Alcock & Anderson, 1899), K. Baba, pers. com.; AM P53251, G. rogeri).
