Description:

This is a view of the left gnathopods (#1 is to the left, #2 next to it to the right). Gnathopods have 7 segments, the last two of which form a (usually subchelate) claw. In this view the 7th segment (the movable tip of the claw) is folding away from the view plane. Segment 5 of gnathopod 1 is longer than segment 6.
