Metanephrops jenkinsi n. sp. (Decapoda: Nephropidae) from the Cretaceous and Paleocene of Seymour Island, Antarctica

Twenty-eight specimens of well-preserved macrurous decapod crustaceans, collected from the Lopez de Bertodano and Sobral Formations on Seymour Island, Antarctic Peninsula, form the basis for description of Metanephrops jenkinsi n. sp. Based upon associated cephalopods, foraminiferans, and palynomorp...
