Anterior part of cephalothorax, telson and uropods brownish. Reproductive biology and larval development. Ovigerous females with few eggs; size of undeveloped eggs (without eyespots) 1.03���1.18 x 0.69���0.76 mm, size of developed eggs (containing embryos with eyes) 1.20���1.23 x 0.78���0.89 mm. From hatching the larvae are able to use the pleopods for swimming, in the laboratory they usually stood on the bottom of the container or the piece of Catappa leaf and walked using the pereiopods. Well-developed uropods appeared in the second larval stage. In this stage most of the appendages (but not the sexual appendages) resemble that of adults in shape and function. Setae only, especially those on the dorsal margin of the telson, on the flexor margin of dactyli of walking legs and numbers of teeth on the rostrum, are increasing in number during further development. Thus the second larval stage was considered as juvenile. Morphology of the first larval stage with well-developed and functional pereiopods and chelipeds as well as the shape and spinulation of the telson and reduction to one larval stage are typical for species with direct larval development (DD) (Benzie & Silva 1983; Dudgeon 1987; Lai & Shy 2009). Weak conical teeth-like protuberances instead of developed setae on tips of fingers of chelipeds, maxillipeds and maxillae may suggest that larvae of this instar do not feed and thus may be classified as lecithotrophic (Anger 2001). The morphology of the 1 st larval stage is described in detail and only the changes observed in the following stage are presented below. Stage I, decapodit (Figs. 4, 5) Total length: 3.2���3.8 mm, (n = 5); carapace length: 0.96���0.98 mm (n = 5). Total length approximate due to the convexity of preserved specimens. Duration of stage: 3���5 days. Rostrum (Fig. 4 A, B) short, not exceeding distal margin of 1 st antennular peduncle, without teeth on dorsal and ventral margin, with two fine simple setae near tip. Carapace (Fig. 4 A) without antennal or other spines. Eyes sessile. Abdomen (Fig. 4 A) with 6 somites, last somite incompletely separated from telson. Telson (Fig. 4 A, C) spatulate with a distinct notch on posterior margin, with 8 pairs of plumose setae, innermost small, outermost feathered on posterior margin only. Uropods absent. Antennule (Fig. 4 D) with peduncle 3 -segmented; stylocerite reaching to about midlength of first segment of antennular peduncle, rounded, narrowing distally to an acute tip, with 3 simple setae lateral; first segment of peduncle with 2 or 3 small plumose setae lateral, one large plumose seta distolateral, 1 or 2 spiniform setae and about 8 fine simple setae distal; second segment with 3 large plumose setae lateral, 3 or 4 spiniform setae and about 8 simple setae distal; third antennular peduncle with 5���7 large plumose setae lateral to ventral; inner flagellum with 6 segments, 3 rd segment (Fig. 4 E) with 3 club-like aesthetascs; outer flagellum with 7 segments.

Maxillae (Fig. 4 I) with coxal endite bearing 30���40 simple setae; basal endite with 4���6 conical teeth-like protuberances on folded distal lobe, with about 10 on proximal lobe; endopod palp-like, unarmed; about 41 plumose setae on distal and lateral margin of scaphognatite, posterior directed lobe with 3 large and one smaller setae distally. First maxilliped (Fig. 4 J) Coxa with up to 5 plumose setae; basis with 20���25 conical teeth-like protuberances, endopod ending in a stout fingerlike projection with 1 or 2 plumose setae; exopod with about 18 plumose setae on lateral margin, no setae on distal, palp-like tip. Second maxilliped (Fig. 4 K) with coxa bearing one seta and a podobranch reduced to as small lamina; basis with 10 simple setae; endopod 3 -segmented, 3 or 4 conical teeth-like protuberances at outer edge of angle of last segment, two rows of about 12���15 conical teeth-like protuberances on medially directed face; exopod unsegmented with 4 large plumose setae terminal and 2 smaller ones subterminal. Third maxilliped (Fig. 5 A) Coxa with epipod well developed, bilobed, posterior directed lobe with a terminal hook; endopod 3 -segmented, proximal segment with one strong spiniform seate distally and 6 or 7 simple setae on mesial margin; median segment with two spiniform setae and 4 simple setae distally and 2 or 3 spiniform setae mesially, distal segment with a strong spine terminal and 3 subterminal spiniform setae, 4 rows with 3, 3���4, 4, 3���4 short but strong serrate setae and one spiniform seta near 3 rd row of serrate setae, upper margin with few simple setae; exopod unsegmented with 4 large plumose setae terminal and 2 smaller ones subterminal. First cheliped (Fig. 5 B) chelate; coxa with a well developed epipod and one setobranch; carpus short, distinctly excavated distally; tips of fingers of chelae lacking brushes of setae typical for adults but with numerous conical teeth-like protuberances, dactylus slightly longer than propodus. Second cheliped (Fig. 5 C) chelate; coxa with a well developed epipod and one setobranch; carpus more slender than carpus of first cheliped, slightly excavated distally; tips of fingers lacking brushes of setae typical for adults but with numerous conical teeth-like protuberances, dactylus slightly longer than propodus. Third pereiopod (Fig. 5 D) well developed; coxa with a well developed epipod and one setobranch; ischium with one spiniform seta; merus with 3 spiniform setae; carpus with 1 large spiniform seta lateral and a smaller one subdistal; propodus with 2 spiniform setae distal and 3���5 (mostly 4) pairs of spiniform seta
