Type locality Gulf of California, Punta Marcial, 25.5167° N, 111.0167° W (Harrison & Bowman 1987). Revised definition Adapted to the scheme in Table 2 by using published data (Harrison & Bowman 1987; Ortiz et al. 2017b) on adults of both sexes: all features diagnosed above for genus and subgenus Mysidium Dana, 1852, with the reservation that the detailed structure of the setae on the merus of thoracic endopod 3 is unknown. Cornea calotte-shaped in dorsal view, its diameter 2.1 times as long as terminal segment of antennular trunk. Eyestalks smooth. Rostrum round-triangular, not extending beyond eyestalks.Appendix masculina obscurely bilobate, all along inner margins fringed by large setae; its length 1.5 times terminal segment of antennular trunk. Length of antennal scale four times maximum width; scale reaching well beyond antennular trunk. Median segment of mandibular palp with setae all along inner margin, whereas setae lacking on outer margin. Carpopropodus with two segments in thoracic endopods 1–2, 7–8, versus three segments in endopods 3–6. Basal segment is 0.6 times total length of carpopropodus of endopod 3. Male pleopod 1 stout, allusively bilobate. Sympod of male pleopod 4 without endite. Its exopod with basal Table 2 (continued). Original data and from 1) Harrison & Bowman 1987; 2) Ortiz et al. 2017a, 2017b; 3) Băcescu 1991; 1, 2, 3) data partly derived from figures. segment occupying 58% total length. Endopod reduced to lobe with = 11% sympod length; apically with one long seta and more proximally six additional, smaller setae. Uropodal endopod 0.6–0.7 times as long as exopod. Telson linguiform, tapering posteriorly, length 1.9 times maximum width near basis; lateral margins slightly convex, almost straight; terminal margin clearly convex, well rounded. Proximal half of lateral margins smooth, distal half with dense series of 30–37 short, blunt or pointed spines on each side; lateral margins each with about 19 spines, terminal margin with about 24 spines. Distribution and habitat East Pacific coast of Mexico: Gulf of California, Islas Tres Marías, 21–26° N. Occurring in shallow, coastal marine waters where it forms dense epibenthic swarms (Gómez-Gutiérrez et. al. 2014). Also collected with night light at surface and from fish stomachs (Harrison & Bowman 1987; Ortiz et al. 2017b).
