descriptionHimerometra with stout, enlarged proximal pinnules that taper rapidly or gradually to the tip; of ~20-42 segments almost all broader than long, with distal ends unmodified or swollen, but never spinous. Distal edges of proximal brachials smooth or slightly produced. Arms 33-62 (usually ~45) up to 200 mm long. Diagnostic features of H. robustipinna and H. magnipinna overlap broadly, prompting their synonymy under the senior name. [details]
