 Body length. m: mean Ô SD, 2.29 Ô 0.25 mm (n 5 8), range 1.99±2.76 mm.: l 1.52 Ô 0.11 mm (n 5 4), 1.42±1.67 mm.   
 Description. Female (holotype). Body (®gure 2A) 2.47 mm in length, more or less depressed; cephalosome separate from ®rst pedigerous somite; cephalosome expanded laterally, with distinct naupliar eyes present; maximum width measured at its posterior end. Rostrum (®gure 2B) separate at base, weakly bifurcate at tip.   
First pedigerous somite narrow. Urosome consisting of ®fth pedigerous somite, genital double-somite and three-segmented abdomen; ®fth pedigerous somite expanded laterally. Genital double-somite (®gure 2A, C) wider than long; gonopores located laterally at about one-third length, covered with vestigial leg 6 (®gure 2D); single copulatory pore located ventro-medially at about one-third length, connected via paired copulatory ducts to seminal receptacles; transverse rows of minute spinules posteriorly on ventral surface. Anal somite (®gure 2E) with serrated posterior margin ventrally; caudal ramus approximately ®ve times longer than wide; seta V longest.  
Antennule (®gure 2F, G) 15-segmented. Segmentation pattern and armature elements as follows: 1(I± II)Ð 3, 2(III ± V)Ð 5, 3 (VI ± IX)Ð 8, 4 (X)Ð2, 5(XI)Ð 2, 6(XII ± XIV)Ð6, 7 (XV ± XVII)Ð 5, 8(XVIII)Ð 1, 9(XIX)Ð 2, 10 (XX)Ð 1, 11(XXI)Ð 2, 12 (XXII ± XXIII)Ð 2 1 aesthetasc, 13 (XXIV)Ð1 1 1, 14(XXV)Ð 1 1 1 1 aesthetasc, 15 (XXVI ± XXVIII)Ð 7 1 aesthetasc. Antenna (®gure 2H) foursegmented; basis separate from endopod; exopod represented by two setae of unequal length; ®rst endopodal segment with vestigial seta at midlength; distal compound segment representing second to fourth ancestral segments, with three setae and one rudimentary seta at one-third length, and one robust claw, two curved spiniform setae, and two long and two short setae terminally; distal endopodal segment bearing two oblique rows of spinules along outer margin. Labrum (®gure 3A, B) with strong paired processes laterally.  
Mandible (®gure 2I±K) with small protuberance between two ventral-most teeth; ®rst endopodal segment bearing four setae, second segment with four lateral and two terminal setae in addition to three setae on subterminal process which is not found in opposite palp; exopod four-segmented, setal formula 1, 1, 1, 2. Maxillule (®gure 3C) with stout praecoxal arthrite, bearing two spinulose setae and seven spines, distal-most of which heavily sclerotized; coxal endite with single plumose seta; coxal epipodite bearing two plumose setae of unequal length; proximal and distal basal endites rudimentary, two and ®ve setae, respectively; endopod unisegmented, with four lateral and ®ve terminal setae; exopod quadrate, with four long plumose setae terminally. Maxilla (®gure 3D, E) well developed; praecoxa incompletely fused with coxa, ®rst and second endites bearing four and one seta, respectively; coxal endites with two and three setae, respectively; basis fused with heavily sclerotized claw bearing two setae of unequal size; endopod three-segmented, ®rst to third segments bearing 1, 1, 4 setae, respectively. Maxilliped (®gure 3F) bearing 1, 2, 2 setae on syncoxal endites; syncoxa also with three rows of minute spinules; basis with subterminal spinulose seta; endopod unisegmented, with ®ve pinnate setae and one naked seta.  
Legs 1±4 (®gure 4A±D) with both rami three-segmented. Spine and seta formula of these legs as in diagnosis of the family given by Huys (1990, p. 284), except for the presence of only one inner seta on the second endopodal segment of leg 1. Coxae of legs 1±4 each with inner seta; basis of leg 1 with inner spine and outer seta; outer basal seta present in legs 2±4. Terminal spines of legs 2±4 curved inwards.  
Leg 5 (®gure 2A, C) two-segmented; proximal segment bearing outer seta; distal segment with two terminal setae of unequal length, one outer and one inner subterminal seta; inner subterminal seta shortest, at base of which row of minute spinules present. Leg 6 (®gure 2D) lamelliform, bearing short outer spine and inner setule at dorso-posterio r corner.  
 Male (paratypes). Body (®gure 5A) similar to that of female, but more slender. Rostrum (®gure 5B) separate at base as in female. Urosome consisting of ®fth pedigerous somite, genital somite, and four-segmented abdomen. Antennule (®gure 5B) 14-segmented, unigeniculate between 12 (XX) and 13 (XXI ± XXIII). Segmentation pattern and armature elements as follows: 1(I± II) Ð 3, 2 (III ± V) Ð 5, 3 (VI ± IX) Ð 8, 4 (X)Ð 2, 5(XI)Ð 2, 6 (XII)Ð 2, 7(XIII)Ð 2, 8(XIV)Ð 2, 9(XV ± XVII) Ð 4 1 aesthetasc, 10 (XVIII)Ð1, 11(XIX)Ð 2, 12 (XX)Ð 1 modi®ed spine-like fused element 1 1, 13 (XXI ± XXIII) Ð1 modi®ed spine-like fused element 1 1, 14 (XXIV ± XXVIII) Ð 10 (elements indisguishable). Antenna as in female. Mandible (®gure 5E) as in female; ®rst endopodal segment bearing four or ®ve setae; subterminal protuberance absent on second endopodal segments on either side. Maxilla as in female. Maxilliped (®gure 5F) without distinct sexual dimorphism.   
Legs 1±4 as in female, but outer spines on third exopodal segment not as strongly curved inward as in female. Leg 5 (®gure 5C) as in female. Leg 6 (®gure 5D) lamelliform, with two setae at outer posterior corner.  
 Variation. The terminal prominence on the second endopodal segment of the mandibular palp on one side only of the holotype (®gure 2I) was not found in other type specimens. It is therefore interpreted as an abnormal condition. The dissected paratypes (4mm, 2 ll) bear four setae on the ®rst endopodal segment in the female and either four or ®ve in the male. The presence of ®ve setae in one male paratype is interpreted here as abnormal.   
The degree of inward curvature of outer spines on the second and third exopodal segments of legs 1±4 varies between the dissected types. In one paratype female an inner seta is present on the right basis of leg 1 instead of a spine.  
 Etymology. The new speci®c name is named in honour of Dr Kazuya Nagasawa (National Institute of Far Seas Fisheries Research).
