Dorsal flagellum of antennule with 39–54 articles, ventral flagellum with 10–13 articles. Antennal flagellum with 8–12 articles. Pereopod II dactylus with tapered rounded heel. Pereopod III dactylus with bifurcated heel. Pereopod IV dactylus with produced acute heel.</p><p>The collected specimens completely correspond to the re-description of the species presented by Boyko [2002]. To compare individual populations and perform phylogeographic analyses, it is important to use barcoding (analysis of COI mtDNA gene marker variability).</p><p>COLORATION. From uniformly creamy to brown with light brown highlights along the edges and grooves of the carapace and appendages. The setae and bristles are dark (Fig. 2; [Marin, 2013a]).</p><p>BODY SIZE. The largest studied specimen is CL. 27 mm.</p><p>GENBANK ACCESSION NUMBERS. OM305089, OM305090.</p><p>DISTRIBUTION. The species is known from the Russia of the Sea of Japan (Posyeta Bay; Patrocl Bay; Peter the Great Bay; Sakhalin: Aniva Bay (Korsakov)) [Makarov, 1938; Marin, 2013a; Petryashev, 2005; Urita, 1934], Japan (Hokkaido: off Oshoro; Hokadate; Honsu: Aomori) [Duruflé, 1889; Bouvier, 1898a, b; Miyake, 1957; Konishi, 1987], Korea (Hamgyong-bukto: Kankyo-hokudo; Hamgyong-namdo: Kankyô-nandô; Kangwon-do: Kôgen-dô; Jeju island) [Kamita 1957; Oh, 1996, 1999] and China (Yellow Sea; Chefoo; Rìzhào) [Yü, 1935; Qiang et al., 2016; Ding et al., 2016].</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/993687B9F60BFFB7FE9DF906035B23A4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
