Taxonomy Placed tentatively in the genus Paracentromedon by Barnard & Karaman 1991, although they stated that it probably belongs in a new genus because of the expanded article 2 of pereopods & other oddities of this species include eye with corneal lens dorsally, flanged peduncle of uropod 2, flanged articulation on pleonite 4 and nails on dactyls of gnathopod I and pereopods 3-4. Generic placement may also include Hippomedon manene and H. matikuku (Barnard & Karaman, 1991)
