CB699717B31E58D7AE4470DD68F195A7.taxon	description	Description (The species description is based on the tomographic data, NIGP 175852). Carapace (Figs 8, 9): LV overlaps RV along the dorsal and ventral margins. Dorsal margin with greatest height at about 1 / 3 rd of length, tapering down in straight line and same angle to anterior and posterior ends. Hinge well-developed, straight, between highest point and posterior end. Both anterior and posterior margins nearly equicurvate, with the latter curved much narrower than the former, but lacking an acute angle or pointed tip. Fusiform in dorsal view with greatest width at mid-length. Ventral margin slightly concave at mid-length. Calcified inner lamella relatively narrow at free margin, slightly broader at posterior end, and broadest at anterior end. Central muscular scars not visible. Normal pores scattered over smooth surface. Soft Body (Figs 10 - 13): A 1 (Figs 10 B, 12 A, B, N, O, 13 A) with eight segments. Segments 1 and 2 fused forming large base, with two long setae originating ventro-distally on segment 2. Segment 3 short and asymmetric, sub-triangular, with ventral extension. Segment 4 connected to segment 3 with ventral inclination. Segments 4 to 8 all separate (not fused) and rectangular, with decreasing widths. Presence of setae confirmed for segments as figured. Setae on segment 8 at least as long as figured, possibly longer. A 2 (Figs 10 A, 12 C, D, P, 13 A) Segment 1 (coxa) subrectangular, segment 2 (basis) elongate and carrying long ventro-apical seta. Knee between segment 2 and 3. Segment 3 (first endopodal segment) very similar to segment 2 in shape and length, also carrying ventro-apical seta. Exopod not confirmed, but aesthetasc Y present. Natatory setae not observed in male, but at least 2 natatory setae present in one of the female's A 2 (Fig. 12 P); their exact point of origin at segment 3 is unclear. Segments 4 and 5 possibly fused, since clear segmental boundary could not be confirmed. Their length approximately half the length of segment 3. Apically with at least three claws (G 1, G 2, G 3). Segment 6 small with at least one claw apically (GM or Gm). Md (Figs 10 D, 12 E, F, Q, 13 B) Masticatory process of coxa with teeth (total number uncertain). Palp consisting of 4 separate segments and remarkably straight (i. e., not bent ventrally towards mouth). Segment 1 (basis) with vibratory (branchial) plate on dorsal edge (no setae observed), and two thick setae ventrally, one at medium-length of the segment, the other more distally, but still at a considerable distance to segment 2. Shape of this segment obliquely trapezoidal due to angulation on dorsal margin. Segment 2 nearly square-shaped, with at least three setae apically (one dorsally, two ventrally). Segment 3 more elongate, with shoulders distally towards segment 4. On these shoulders, at least 5 setae confirmed (2 dorsally, 3 ventrally). Segment 4 much thinner than proximal segments, distally at least one thick seta or claw present. Mxl (Fig. 10 C) Protopod with branchial plate (no setae confirmed), three masticatory lobes (endites 1 - 3) and palp. Palp possibly two-segmented, as dorsal seta might indicate. Distal claws and / or setae not confirmed. L 5 Male (Figs 10 E, 12 G, H, 13 C): no setae on protopod confirmed. Palp (endopod) truncated, possible finger-like process of this clasping organ not observed. Masticatory process with several distal setae. Female (Figs 10 F, 12 R): masticatory process and palp preserved with no detail. L 6 (Figs 10 G, 12 I, J, S) Walking leg. Segment 1 small, segment 2 elongate with seta e distally. Segments 3 and 4 separate, not fused. Segment 3 with seta f distally, segment 4 with no seta g observed. Segment 5 with long claw h 2. L 7 (Figs 10 H, 12 K, L, T, U, 13 D) Cleaning leg, directed dorsally. Segment 1 (basis) with setae d 1 and d 2 present. Segment 2 (first endopodal segment) long, with distal seta e. Segments 3 and 4 separate, not fused. Segment 3 with seta f, segment 4 with seta g distally. Segment 5 short, nearly quadrate; distally long claw h 2 and long reversed seta h 3 present. Ur ramus (Figs 11 A, B, 12 M, V, 13 E) Relatively stout and straight, with two relatively long terminal claws of similar length preserved (approx. half the length of the posterior edge of the ramus). Posterior and anterior setae not observed. UR attachment simply branched. HP (Figs 11 C, 13 F) roughly triangular in lateral view, with no differentiation of lobes observed. Greatest length of HP nearly a quarter of carapace length. Female genital lobes (Figs 11 B, 13 G) formed as spindle-shaped projections towards posterior and extending nearly to the posterior-most end of the soft body (i. e. basis of the UR).	en	Wang, He, Matzke-Karasz, Renate, Horne, David J.

237F82384C065AF48B7AC6E27A4679D8.taxon	description	Emended description. Carapace (Figs 1, 2): Adults small, in lateral view subtriangular. Female with higher and more pointed dorsal peak than male. In dorsal view, anterior and posterior ends blunt, not pointed. Valves thick and strongly reticulate, with prominent transverse muri, except for the dorsal region, which is smooth. In adults, a conspicuous antero-ventral lateral node present on each of the valves (Figs 1 E, J, 2 A). Antero-dorsally with smooth eye-spot (Fig. 1 F). Normal pores distributed all over the valves except dorsal area. LV overlaps RV along dorsal and ventral margins. Hinge adont. Well-developed calcified inner lamella in adult carapaces, broader anteriorly than posteriorly, and anteriorly with inner list (Fig. 2 C). Ventral margin of calcified inner lamella with conspicuous anterior tooth in LV and corresponding socket in RV, and two smaller posterior teeth in LV with corresponding sockets in RV, the latter much less developed than anterior socket (Fig. 2 B). No central muscle scars preserved. Preserved juveniles show similar carapace ornamentation as adults except for A- 4 stage, which is smooth (Fig. 1). Soft Body (Figs 3 - 6): A 1 (Figs 3 A, B, O, P, 4 A, 5 B) with eight segments. Segments 1 and 2 fused forming large base, with two setae of unknown length originating dorso-median and long setae situated ventro-distally on segment 2. Only a little more distal, ventro-basally on segment 3, prominent Rome Organ with inflated tip (Figs 4 A, 5 B). Segment 3 short and sub-triangular. Segment 4 longer than twice its width. Segments 5 to 8 not fused and rectangular, with decreasing widths. Presence of setae confirmed for segments as figured. Setae at least as long as figured, possibly longer. A 2 (Male) (Figs 3 C, D, 5 C) Segment 1 (coxa) small, with 2 setae ventrally. Segment 2 (basis) elongate and carrying long ventro-apical seta. Segment 3 (first endopodal segment) elongate, with aesthetasc Y (ventro-median) and four natatory setae ventro-apically on the interior side of the appendage. Natatory setae possibly not complete and maximum length not known. Segments 4 and 5 possibly fused, together around half the length of segment 3. Apically with at least one seta subapical-exteriorly and three claws. Segment 6 small with at least one claw apically. Preservation of female A 2 not sufficient for detailed chaetotaxy (Fig. 3 Q, R). Md (Figs 3 E, F, S, T, 5 A) Masticatory process of coxa too poorly preserved to describe morphology. Palp consisting of 4 separate segments and straight (i. e., not bent ventrally). Branchial plate not observed. Segment 1 (basis) with two setae ventrally, one at medium-length of the segment, the other more distally. Third seta originating on interio-apical margin. Shape of this segment subrectangular with angulation on dorsal margin. Segment 2 square-shaped, with at least five setae apically (2 dorsally, 3 ventrally). Segment 3 rectangular with at least 5 setae confirmed 3 dorsally, 2 ventrally). Segment 4 much thinner than proximal segments, rectangular, distally with at least 1 claw and 2 setae. Mxl (Figs 3 G, U, V, 5 E, F) Protopod with branchial plate with at least 15 marginal setae. Three masticatory lobes (endites 1 - 3) with distal claws / setae. Palp with two segments, both with at least 3 setae on their apical margins. L 5 Male (Figs 3 H, I, 5 D) no setae on protopod confirmed. Branchial plate with six marginal setae. Palp (endopod) a jointed clasping organ, carrying a long claw / finger-like process distally, and a shorter (sensory?) process more ventrally. Masticatory process with three or more setae. Female L 5 badly preserved (Fig. 3 W, X). L 6 (Figs 3 J, Y, Z, 5 G) Walking leg with 5 segments. Segment 1 with setae d 1 and d 2. Segment 2 elongate with no seta preserved.

L 7 (Figs 3 AA, AB, 5 H, I) Distal parts of this appendage not preserved. Bending of this appendage dorsally suggests it being used as a typical cleaning leg. Segment 1 (basis) with setae d 1, d 2 and dp present. Segment 2 (first endopodal segment) long, with no seta preserved. Segment 3 preserved in one of the male's L 7, however, only partially. Ur ramus (Figs 3 K, AC, 5 J) Elongate, only slightly bent, with two relatively long terminal claws of similar length preserved (approx. half the length of the posterior edge of the ramus). Posterior and anterior setae not observed. HP (Figs 4 D, E, 6 A, B) nearly rectangular in lateral view, with outer distal lobe wider and shorter than inner lobe. Several loops of sperm duct preserved in HP (Fig. 4 E). Female genital lobes (Fig. 4 F) formed as spindle-shaped projections towards posterior and extending nearly to the posterior-most end of the soft body (i. e. basis of the UR).

507D0072630955BCB0084C46DC525DE8.taxon	description	Description. Carapace (Figs 14 A-E, 16 A, C) small subtriangular shape in lateral view. Greatest height at 1 / 4 of length. Anterior margin broadly rounded. Posterior margin narrowly rounded. Dorsal margin straight, moderately sloping down from the greatest height to the posterior margin. Ventral margin straight in middle part in both valves, with slightly concave regions in the very middle, forming distinct flaps as an area of valve overlap (LV> RV) (Fig. 16 A). From posterior third, ventral margin ascending towards posterior end. Carapace in dorsal view elliptical, with posterior and anterior part compressed and central region strongly protruding. The valve's lateral surface punctate in the flat anterior and posterior marginal regions, while pitted (i. e., covered with wider and deeper depressions) in the central region and dorsally. Valves thick in cross section (Fig. 16 C). Inflated central region with distinct sulcus mid-dorsally. Inner calcified lamella wide. Central muscular scar pattern, pore morphology and detailed hinge elements not preserved. Soft parts almost all preserved, but with a low degree of detail. A 1 (Figs 14 F, G, 15 A, 16 D) rod-shaped. Segmentation and setation not preserved. A 2 (Figs 14 H, I, 15 B, 16 D) more robust than A 1, number of segments unknown. With prominent knee between protopodite and endopodite, close to which the spinneret seta (exopodite) originates, the only preserved setation of both A 2 in this specimen. Between the right A 2 and the internal side of RV, a roundish, disk-shaped body is preserved, which we tentatively interpret as the sac of the spinneret gland containing the secretion (Fig. 16 D). Md (Figs 14 J, K, 15 E, 16 B, E) Masticatory process of coxa preserved, reaching into the oral opening, but teeth only weakly preserved. The palp's segmentation and setation not preserved. Vibratory plate not preserved. Mxl (Figs 14 L, M, 15 C, 16 B) Protopod with three masticatory lobes (endites 1 - 3) and two-segmented palp, without any claws / setae preserved; branchial plate preserved.
