I have a feeling they may be part of Diastylidae, but let me know if I'm wrong

Nuno Gomes

It seems that it belongs to Diastylidae. Did any specimen presented pleopods (tipical in males)? Many species of this family have considerable sexual dimorphism.

Michael L. Zettler

I can confirm that it is a species of Diastylidae, without knowing exactly which species it is.

Donald Cadien

Yes, Diastylidae unanimously. The pseudorostrum and anterior carapace look very much like Makrokylindrus, but the telson is wrong for that genus.
