Diagnosis

The male fifth right leg resembles that of C. australica and C. ampulla in some respects. However, the all-important exopodite of the male fifth left leg is quite different from that of both these species. It would appear that this species has a much more restricted distribution than either C. lucasi or C. tasmanica, for example.
