Transkalliapseudes spinulata Drumm View in CoL and Heard, 2006b: Figs. 1–4. Bamber, 2008: 150, 151.

Type material. Holotype male, 3.7 mm ( AM P56734); paratype: 1 adult male ( AM P52195).

Material examined. Holotype and paratype.

Diagnosis. Male rostrum rounded. Pleotelson with narrow posterior half and two terminal long plumose setae. Pereopod bases densely spinulated.

Type locality. Northwest Shelf , western Australia, 19°5.2'S, 118°57.6'E, 82 m depth (Fig. 1, number 42) GoogleMaps .

Geographic distribution. Northwest Shelf , western Australia, 19°5.2'– 19°56.4'S , 118°57.6'– 117°53.9'E, 44– 82 m depth.

Remarks. Transkalliapseudes spinulata can be distinguished from T. banana by having a more dense spinulation on the bases of the pereopods and having a rounded rostrum (concave in T. banana ).

Subfamily Tanapseudinae B ă cescu, 1978

Diagnosis (according to Guţu, 2001). Antennule with inner flagellum reduced or not. Antenna with four or five– articulated peduncle. Mandible with uniarticulated and small palp, ending in seta.
