Cumacean crustaceans obtained by the 26th Japanese Antarctic research expedition (1984–1985), with descriptions of four new species
Abstract: In a small collection of cumacean crustaceans taken by the 26th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (1984185) at three stations (275-293 m deep) off Princess Ragnhild Coast, using beam-trawls and MTD-net, in February 1985, six species were found.

Summary: | Abstract: In a small collection of cumacean crustaceans taken by the 26th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (1984185) at three stations (275-293 m deep) off Princess Ragnhild Coast, using beam-trawls and MTD-net, in February 1985, six species were found. Four of them, Vaunthompsonia laevifrons, Cyclaspis cristulata, Leucon breidensis, and Cumella pectinifera, are proposed herein as new to science. Brief accounts and illustrations of the other two, Cyclaspis (?) sp. and Hemilamprops sp., are given, but the exact identification of the species is re- |
