Pseudocumatidae are a family of crustaceans of the order Cumacea.
[edit] Anatomy
Pseudocumatidae have a small, free telson. The uropods bear endopods (interior branch) on one segment. The males have two pairs of rather rudimentary pleopods and the flagella of the second antenna reach far beyond the pereon. In females the second antenna much is smaller than the first antenna.
