Taxonomy Norman & Stebbing did not describe A. hastifrons, but are considered the authorities because in discussing a paper by Claus, 1884 they state “[The paper by Claus] is a morphological paper dealing with the general structure of the body and its limbs. The species on which the observations are based is called Apseudes latreillii, Edw. It is certainly not that species as understood by other authors, and comes nearest to A. acutifrons, G.O. Sars. It, however, is distinguished from A. acutifrons in the rostrum being rather wider at the base, the ocular alæ of quite another form, wider and larger, and containing conspicuous eyes, and in slight differences in the lower antennae and other parts. The second gnathopods are altogether different, the front margin of the wrist being furnished with three, and that of the hand with six large spines. We would suggest the name Apseudes hastifrons for this form" [details]
