		The third maxillipeds are on the third thoracomere and are immediately anterior to the chelipeds.
		The floor of the anterior half of this channel is made of the epipod of maxilliped 1 which separates the channel from the gills.
		Maxilliped 1 has no gills but has the important epipod that encloses the exhalant water channel and the gill bailer.

	Glossary
		Coxa (sing), coxae (pl): First or proximal article of leg or maxilliped and is the segment of the leg directly attached to the sternite of body.
		Maxilliped: A pair of appendages situated posterior to the maxillae and derived from the first pair of thoracic appendages.
		Each maxilliped consists of an inner lobe, outer lobe and a palp of two to four articles (although this can be reduced in some amphipod families).

	References
		In those Crustacea which have no such free fold but a cephalothoracic shield covering the cephalon and part or the whole of the thorax, this shield was interpreted as a carapace fold fused to the dorsum of the thorax and often overhanging its sides, for example, in lobsters and natantians.
		Free dorsal folds in the Malacostraca are always attached to the posterior margin of a thoracic segment, and dorsal cephalothoracic shields are never formed as a result of the fusion of a cephalic carapace fold to the dorsum of the thorax.
		In the Anaspidacea, Amphipoda and Isopoda, which have no branchiostegal folds behind the maxilliped segment, the external segmentation is retained in all segments behind it, and the same is the case with the segments behind the cephalothoracic shield in, for example, mysids and cumaceans.

		Maxillipeds are legs modified to function as mounthparts.
		Particularly in the less advanced decapods, these can be very similar to the pereiopods.

		Ultrastructure of setae of the maxilliped of the marine planktonic copepod Temora stylifera
		It was the goal of our study to determine the structures of potential sensors of setae on appendages of calanoids which are involved in the collection of food particles after these have been perceived at a distance from the gathering appendage(s).
		Hydrodynamic sensors of the maxilliped are likely to be utilized when captured food particles have to be manipulated for ingestion or rejection.

		Development of the maxilliped of 14 species of cyclopoid copepods from 14 genera in the families Cyclopinidae, Oithonidae and Cyclopidae is described.
		Segment homologies are inferred from the assumption that homologous setae and arthrodial membranes are added during the same copepodid stage, and from a model of development that patterns the endopod proximally from the proximal of two endopodal segments present at the first copepodid stage.
		For purposes of phylogenetic analyses, uncoupling the presence of the distal arthrodial membrane of a segment from the presence of its ventral seta and analyzing each separately may provide a better way of understanding evolutionary transformations of the limb than considering the segment as the basic structural unit of the limb.

		In addition, antennular accessory flagellum with 3 segments; maxilla 1 with 6 spines on the outer lobe and palp subequal to the outer lobe; maxilliped dactyl claw as a spine with flanking setae; pleopods as short fins; telson short and fleshy; uropod 1 outer ramus less than half the inner ramus.
		Little about this genus is distinctive, aside from the vestigial mandibular palp, to mark it from other ingolfiellids, and its lack of lenticular organs to mark it from many (but not all) of the other large bodied cave-dwelling species of central Africa.
		In addition, several homoplastic features typically prevail such as: maxilliped dactyl claw with a single seta; gnathopod 2 carpal saw with 7 teeth, dactyl as a spine; pereiopods 3-7 dactyls often produced with a spur.

		Crabs were considered conscious if they were responsive to stimuli applied to the eyestalks and the third maxillipeds; these responses determine if the cerebral and thoracic ganglia, respectively, are still functioning.
		The crabs retained their ocular and maxilliped reactions for most of this time, suggesting retention of consciousness.
		Therefore the use of KCl should not be considered a humane method of killing in this species.

		The greatest numbers of the smallest size classes of amphipod were present at Site 2 when the quantity of ash-free dry mass (AFDM) of wood and bark was greater than AFDM of leaf detritus.
		Of nine mouthpart and foregut structures studied, three, the number of cuspidate setae on outer plates of maxillipeds, the length of the dactyl on maxilliped palps, and the number of hook setae on the foregut ampullae, were found to be correlated with body length.
		Of these, rates of increase in maxilliped setae numbers and hook setae numbers were greater for immature than mature animals, and the number of hook setae for a given sized animal was generally greater for animals at Site 1 than Site 2.
