- Short spine usually present on or near anterior margin of carapace just ventral to orbit. [Butler, T. H.]
- Spine on anterior edge of carapace immediately below orbit adjacent to base of antenna (fig. 2). [Williams, 1984]
- Spine on anterior margin of carapace ventral or lateral to orbit (antennal angle if spine absent). [Poore, 2004]
- Spine on, or adjacent to, anterior margin of carapace and ventral to orbit (see Fig. 13). [Hobbs and Jass, 1988]
- Spine situated on the anterior margin of the carapace just ventral to the orbital margin (Fig. 2A). [Perez Farfante and Kensley, 1997]
- (Taxon-specific: Order Decapoda) Anteriorly directed, spine-like projection on anterior region on each side of carapace; located below orbit, adjacent to base of antenna, and may extend beyond carapace margin. [Stachowitsch, 1992]
