Endopodal claw of maxilliped spatulate, fringed with series of densely arranged serrations around inner margin and rounded apex; P5 exopod ♂ 2-segmented, with five elements........................................ Karaytugia gen. nov.. Endopodal claw of maxilliped tapering gradually and ending in pointed tip, without serrations around inner margin; P5 exopod ♂ 1- or 3-segmented, with 6–7 elements.............................................. Microthalestris Sars, 1905. |
