Free urosome 5-segmented, comprising genital somite and 4 abdominal somites. Anal somite produced ventrally. Caudal rami armed with 3 claws and 3 setae.

Mandible with 5 teeth and 1 or 2 proximal setae on coxal gnathobase, basis with 1 seta; exopod 2-segmented and armed with 3 and 2 setae on first and second segments, respectively; endopod 2-segmented, armedwith 4 and 9 setaeonfirst and second segments, respectively.
