Black reticulated pigment present on dorsal side of anterior segments; paired black spots arranged on ventral side of anterior segments; narrow black band present on caruncle. Prostomium bifurcated anteriorly. Four black eyes present. Caruncle usually reaching end of segment 5. Median antenna present on caruncle. Segment 5 not modified, with noto- and neuropodial lamellae; two kinds of major spines arranged in a vertical J-shaped double row. Pygidium disclike with dorso-lateral processes. Glandular pouches from segment 1, largest and paired in segments 6 and 7. [details]
Distribution West Pacific Ocean, Taiwan: coasts of East and South China seas, and of Taiwan Strait. [details]
