K. Barnard, 1932

Length 4-9 mm (Andaniexis australis 1). Resembling Andaniexis abyssi except in following particulars: ART 6 of P II not very slender (Andaniexis australis 2), almost as wide as, and scarcely longer than ART 5, subequal in length to ART 6 of P I; posterior margin has a very slight concavity distally which is defined by fairly long, stout spine against which dactyl impinges. Posterior margin of ART 2 of P IV and V perfectly smooth, entire. White eye spot present, apparently even larger than in Andaniexis abyssi. Bentho-pelagic.
