  • Genus Lobetelson n. gen. TYPE SPECIES. — Lobetelson mclaughlinae n. sp. ETYMOLOGY. — Named for the lobate form of the uropodal rami, and an anagram of “ Belotelson ”. DIAGNOSIS. — Moderate to small belotelsonid; rostrum length approximately equal to carapace length, gently curving upward along its length. Thoracopodal endopods long, thin, slit-like, with propodus extremely long. Uropodal rami distinctly lobate, apparently thin and not well sclerotized. REMARKS The distinctive form of the rostrum and the unique tail fan warrant a separate genus for this species.
