== Description == This genus is able to conglobate. Their dorsal side does not have bumps or spines. Their head has a pronounced triangular frontal protrusion with the frontal line missing. The hind corner of the epimera (side plate) on their first pereon segment has a schisma, and the inner and outer lobes are subequal; this schisma continues frontally into a groove for about half the length of the epimeron which is thickened laterally. The epimera of the second and third pereon segments have small ventral endolobi (small, ventral lobe-like structures on the underside of the epimera). The epimera of the fifth pleon segment is strongly convergent. Their telson is triangular with concave sides and a pointed apex. All five of their pleopod exopodites have well-developed pseudotracheae.
