03 Limapontia depressa. Severn Estuary, England.

Most L. depressa lack any large, pale marks, but occasionally there is a faded dorsal area, which on this one resembles the large dorsal mark on L. capitata. Also, the raised eye patch rims of the upper image resemble the head crests of L. capitata. But its salting habitat and the absence of a substantial pale metapodium show that it is L. depressa
The head is widest at its truncated anterior; its rounded corners are about 90°.
