Fig. 2D

Heterotanais crassicornis Stebbing, 1905 , 4–5; pl. 1A

Konarus crassicornis Bamber & Chatterjee, 2010 , 18–22; figs 1–2.

Remarks. As in Konarus cheiris , K. crassicornis has single setae on the ischia of the anterior pereopods, three (not two) distal spines on the carpi of the posterior pereopods. However, these posterior pereopods do appear only have two dorsodistal setae on their propodi. The male is unknown.
