Byblis species are rather uniform in design, with character states being found in myriad combinations. This makes it difficult to assign Byblis species to groups and therefore difficult to compare a new species with existing species, since each species shares a different suite of characters with different species. The antennal length, distally rounded coxa 1-3, pereopod 7 basis shape and position and number of robust setae on the carpus and propodus, the rather short uropod 2, the slender, elongate uropod 3 rami, and the telson lacking dis tal setae, when taken in combination distinguish Byblis levis sp. n. from all other described species. The possibility cannot be excluded that the material examined my not be fully mature. This could explain the scarcity of setae in the material.</p><p>Habitat.</p><p>Sand flats in shallow water.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known only from the type locality.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/66640FB999DF26DC4D97A866CBCAE0B1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In the latter character state it resembles Ampithoe cookana Peart, also from the Great Barrier Reef, but that species has a relatively weakly setiferous propodus anterior margin on the male gnathopod 2.

Antenna1 1-2 marginal robust setae stout. Antenna 2 very stout, weakly setiferous.</p><p>Pereon .Gnathopod 1 coxa weakly produced; dactylus with two stout distal setae. Gnathopod 2 coxa evenly rounded; basis grossly swollen distally, anterior margin irregularly scalloped; propodus sub-ovoid, posterior margin with medial spine, palm with small rounded lobe fitting concavity on posterior margin of dactylus.

Uropod 1 rami subequal, about two thirds length of peduncle; inner ramus with modified weakly hooked tip. Uropod 2 rami subequal with each other and with peduncle; inner ramus with weakly curved, acute tip. Uropod 3 rami lanceolate; inner ramus a little shorter than outer ramus and shorter than peduncle.

Colomastix truncatipes also has very unequal rami on uropod 3, whereas they are almost subequal in Colomastix lecroyae sp. n. The single male Colomastix sp. described by Ledoyer from New Caledonia is 1.9 mm in total length and appears to be immature. It may be synonymous with Colomastix lecroyae sp. n. but has a peculiar character in its bilobed inner lobe of the maxilliped.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known only from the type locality.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/262DF63AEE9E1E06DB6735548BBC1A54	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Gnathopod 2 basis slender, carpus posterodistal margin with blunt spine extending along one third length of posterior margin of propodus; propodus longer and wider then carpus, subovoid; palm oblique; dactylus elongate, strongly curved, greatly overlapping palm.

Cyproidea excavata sp. n. differs from both Colomastix liodactyla Hirayama (1978) and Colomastix cobia Azman (2009) in gnathopod 1 which in those species has a serrated palm and spines on the posterior margin of the dactylus. It differs from Colomastix ornata Haswell (1880) in the more slender propodus of gnathopod 1, the excavate palm of gnathopod 2, and the subequal rami of uropod 3.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known only from the type locality.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/024F5297E981BC8489FF70A3A0C47FDB	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
