The female of L. borzonei differs from that of L. forsmani by its larger size, its carapace being approximately 1/7th of the total length, the antennal notch very widely open, the second peraeopod very short, the uropodal rami approximately as long as the peduncle, and the uropodal endopod with a row of 9-13 plumose setae. |
