Genus: Paradexamine
Name
Paradexamine setigera Hirayama, 1984 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Paradexamine setigera Synonymy: Hirayama, 1984: 225–230; Hirayama 1986[1]: 488.
Material
24 specimens, TIO 10, Kampung Tekek, Pulau Tioman, 2 2°49'11"N, 104°9'32"E, washing mix species of macroalgae, Azman, B.A.R., Josim, J.J., 11 November 1997, UKM I.D. 4891-4898.
Remarks
The Malaysian specimens differ from those described from the waters of Japan only by the lack of the accessory setae of the mandible. At present, this seems inadequate for subspecific distinction due to the enormous resemblance of other characters shared between them. Even though Hirayama (1984)[2] mentioned the closely related Paradexamine micronesica, italso lacks the accessory setae of the mandible. Furthermore, the Pulau Tioman specimens show several differences from Paradexamine micronesica by having; 1) slenderer basis of pereopod 7; 2) several robust setae on dorsal surface of telson; 3) shorter carpus of male gnathopod 2.
