Structure: This species is close to Acanthomytilus imperatae Kuwana, but is distinguished from the latter by the median lobes which are wider than long, and by the submedian dorsal macroducts distinctly separated from the submarginal ones on the prepygidial segments. In A. imperatate the median lobes are a little longer than wide, and the submedian and submarginal macroducts are confounded on the second to fourth abdominal segments (Takagi, 1970).
