Etymology for Dr KG McKenzie, for his valuable contribution to ostracod science in general and to Australian marine fauna in particular.
Description carapace subrectangular, medium-large, thick shelled, dorsum straight, with a semicircular posterior angle, ventrum straight, anterior end rounded, both ends without marginal denticulation, however the posterior end in male specimens may forms a posteroventral cauda. Inner lamella narrow throughout, very narrow vestibule is present at both ends, marginal pore canals short, numerous, simple or divided, central muscle scar field is located in a shallow depression. Surface is reticulated with three prominent longitudinal ribs, the ventral ribs continue parallel to anterior border, the median rib is discontinuous and fused to the external impression of the central muscle scar depression. The surfaces of the ribs are also covered by a network of finer reticulation. Sexual dimorphism is distinct, females are broader than the males. [details]
