(Figs. 13D, 15D, 17D, 19 A–D)

Rochinia decipata Williams & Eldredge, 1994: 1–4, figs. 1, 2 (type locality: Cabras Island, Guam).

Rochinia decipata— Ng & Richer de Forges 2007: 62 (list).— Ng et al. 2008: 105 (list).

Material examined. Holotype: male (14.2 × 9.1 mm) (USNM 251434), Cabras Island, Guam, coll. MJ Wilder, 14 May 1975.

Diagnosis. Carapace pyriform, covered with layer of setae and long tufts of setae on edge of gastric region and lateral margins of carapace; smooth when denuded. Pseudorostral spines straight, diverging in V. Supraorbital eave fuse to carapace, pre-orbital angle blunt. Postorbital lobe flattened on side, protecting eye. Hepatic spine prominent, swollen basally. Margin between postorbital lobe and hepatic spine forms slight U-shaped concavity (Fig. 13D). Carapace with regions well defined; gastric region, epibranchial region and cardiac region swollen; epibranchial region with slight angle on lateral edge; intestinal region with granule (Fig. 13D). Antennal flagellum longer than pseudorostral spines. Basal antennal article fused with carapace, longer than broad, large, plate-like with relatively blunt distal angle. Buccal frame covered by third maxilliped. Pterygostomial region with raised, plate-like lobe on outer margin (Fig. 15D). Chelipeds inflated, propodus carinate; carpus, merus and propodus covered with setae; carpus with swellings, margins carinate; merus triangular in cross section. Ambulatory legs covered with setae except at tip of dactylus, slender; granule present on distal tip of merus. Male thoracic sternum flat, slightly depressed anteriorly; sternites 3 and 4 margin slightly constricted, surface concave slightly (Fig. 15D). Male pleon triangular, all somites and telson free (Fig. 15D). G1 straight with distal tip composed of 2 lobes (Fig. 19 A–D).

Remarks. Little is known of Crocydocinus decipata comb. nov., with only the male holotype known. Crocydocinus decipata comb. nov. was identified as most similar to R. suluensis Griffin & Tranter, 1986, and R. moluccensis Griffin & Tranter, 1986, but differs in the morphology of the postorbital lobe, cheliped and G1. As discussed earlier, although the G1 structure is similar to species of Tunepugettia, the tip being bilobed (Fig. 19 A–D), but C. decipata comb. nov. lacks distinct lateral spines that are present in the other species in this genus, and the short, straight and cylindrical pseudorostral spines, straight outer margin of the basal antennal article, and the absence of carina on the ambulatory legs indicate that it should be referred to Crocydocinus n. gen. instead. Crocydocinus decipata comb. nov. is only known from its type locality, Cabras Island, Guam.
