Material examined.

- Tanimbar Island: 2 specimens, MNHN-IU-2019-4922, Stn. CC 21, 05°14'S, 133°00'E, 688-694 m depth, 25 October 1991, attached to glass rope sponge.

Diagnosis.

Capitulum triangular; plates ornamented with radial ridges, covered by sparsely hirsute integument; carina with roof deeply grooved; scutum with apex overlapping tergum; inframedian latus triangular, very small.

Desciption. Capitulum yellowish, with 13 fully calcified plates. Peduncles short with scales slightly overlapping in the middle part. Scutum with pit for complemental males, above shallow pit for adductor muscle. Carina wide in lower part, ribbed in upper part. Upper latus with straight sides; rostrum appearing externally as inverted triangle. Cirrus I unequal, anterior ramus oval, posterior ramus slender, long; cirrus VI with very short caudal appendages. Maxillule with notch between two or three stout setae at upper angle, group of more slender setae on cutting edge; mandible with three teeth excluding inferior angle; labrum cutting edge slightly concave, numerous pointed teeth on cutting edge. Measurements of two specimens: height of capitulum 12.44-13.88 mm, width 6.97-7.52 mm, thickness 2.77-3.47 mm; length of peduncle 2.99-3.15 mm, width 2.94-3.24 mm.
