“Each leg, except those of the last pair, has on its first segment an exopodite with a gill like those of the maxilliped.”
“On one side, the power strokes of the maxilliped movements followed the same sequence of 3, 2 and 1 as in crabs but with longer delays of 30 to 40 ms between each maxilliped.”
“We find that thoracopod 1 in taxa of both families is similar, of 7 articles and forms a maxilliped.”
