03E33501C660FFEF12B1FA046694FB72.taxon	description	(Figure 1) Carapace (Figure 1 A). Dorsal, rostral, and lateral spines absent. Ventral margin posterior to scaphognathite notch with small plumodenticulate seta preceding densely plumose ‘‘ anterior seta’ ’, followed by five plumose setae. Eyes sessile. Small indistinct median ridge frontally and a small median tubercle on posterodorsal margin, each bearing cuticular dorsal organ (sensu Martin and Laverack 1992). Pair of simple setae present on posterodorsal margin. Antennule (Figure 1 B). Unsegmented, smooth, conical. Terminally bearing two long, two shorter aesthetascs. Antenna (Figure 1 C). Biramous, spinous process of the protopod pointed, bearing two rows of sharp spinules; endopod bud present with half of the exopod length; onesegmented exopod shorter than protopod with two subterminal setae with similar size. Mandible (Figure 1 D). With medial toothed molar process and much enlarged lateral incisor processes, as long as antenna. Palp absent. Maxillule (Figure 1 E). Epipod seta absent. Coxal endite bearing seven setae, four terminal setae (two plumodenticulate and two graded plumodenticulate), subterminally with three plumodenticulate setae. Basial endite with three terminal cuspidate setae and four subterminal setae, three plumodenticulate and one plumose. Two-segmented endopod with proximal segment bearing plumodenticulate seta, distal segment bearing two pairs of plumodenticulate setae apically. Exopod seta absent. Maxilla (Figure 1 F). Coxal endite bilobed, proximal lobe with three setae, two plumose and one plumodenticulate; distal lobe with four setae, three plumose and one plumodenticulate. Basial endite bilobed, proximal and distal lobes with four to five and four plumodenticulate setae, respectively. Microtrichia present on both endites. Unsegmented endopod unilobed, with four apical plumodenticulate setae; microtrichia on lateral margin. Scaphognathite with 18 marginal densely plumose setae, including distal process. Maxilliped 1 (Figure 1 A, G). Coxa naked. Basis with nine plumodenticulate setae arranged 2,2,2,3. Endopod five-segmented with 3,2,1,2,5 (one subterminal, four terminal) plumodenticulate setae. Bisegmented exopod with four terminal plumose natatory setae. Maxilliped 2 (Figure 1 A, H). Coxa naked. Basis with three plumodenticulate setae. Endopod three-segmented, with 0,1,6 plumodenticulate setae of different types, two anterior, two medial, two apical on terminal segment. Bisegmented exopod with four terminal plumose natatory setae. Maxilliped 3 (Figure 1 I). Biramous. Endopod, exopod and epipod present Pereiopods (Figure 1 I). Present with bilobed chela. Abdomen (Figure 1 A, J). Five somites. Somite 1 with pair of middorsal plumodenticulate setae, somites 2 – 5 each with pair of shorter posteromedial simple setae. Posterolaterally, somites 2, 4 and 5 with blunt process, somite 3 with spine; somite two with pair of dorsolateral processes. Grouped denticulettes present. Pleopods absent. Telson (Figure 1 J). Bifurcated, distinct median notch, three pairs of plumodenticulate setae on inner margin; each furcal shaft proximally bearing lateral spine, furcal shafts and spines covered in rows of spinules to just below tips. Grouped denticulettes present. Second zoea (Figure 2) Carapace (Figure 2 A). Eyes stalked. Posterolateral margin with nine setae, one densely plumose followed by eight plumose setae. Antennule (Figure 2 B). With four long aesthetascs and one short simple seta, endopod bud present. Antenna (Figure 2 C). Endopod bud enlarged to beyond middle of protopodite. Mandible (Figure 2 D). Palp bud absent. Maxillule (Figure 2 E). Basial endite now with eight setae, three terminal cuspidate setae and five subterminal setae, four plumodenticulate and one plumose. Exopod pappose seta present. Maxilla (Figure 2 F). Scaphognathite with 28 marginal plumose setae. Maxilliped 1 (Figure 2 A). Exopod with six plumose natatory setae. Maxilliped 2 (Figure 2 A). Exopod with six plumose natatory setae. Maxilliped 3 (Figure 2 H). Developing. Endopod showing segmentation. Pereiopods (Figure 2 H). Longer, chela enlarged. Some segmentation apparent. Abdomen (Figure 2 G). Additional sixth somite. Somites 2 – 5 with posterolateral spines, a pair of unsegmented biramous pleopods on somites 2 – 5, endopods very small. Telson (Figure 2 G) Unchanged.	en	Santana, William, Marques, Fernando P.
