About Sicyonia
Sicyonia is a genus of prawns, placed in its own family, Sicyoniidae. It differs from other prawns in that the last three pairs of its pleopods are uniramous, rather than biramous as seen in all other prawns. Sicyonia contains 52 extant species, and one species known only from fossils from the Upper Cretaceous.
