Brief diagnosis.

In the dorsal area, LV lacks a hump, or gibbosity, and the RV has margins bearing denticles ( Victor and Fernando 1980; Martens et al. 2019). Antenna with natatory setae extending beyond the tips of terminal claws, maxillular palp two-segmented, with the third endite bearing two-segmented and serrated teeth. Walking leg (T 2) with a small seta d 1; cleaning leg (T 3) with a seta at the tip of the segment transformed into a pincer organ; uropodal ramus well developed.
