Three species of Macrocyprina were encountered in these samples. Macrocyprina maddocksae sp. nov. is described. This species is diagnosed by the following combined characteristics: carapace fairly small, its lateral surface with three or four small subcircular patches, one small, subtriangular patch at anteroventral margin, one small, elongate, patch at posteroventral margin; male appendages V strongly asymmetrical, left appendage larger than right, podomere II of left appendage subtriangular, not recurved.
