Description
Summary:Styloptocumoides gen. nov. Type species. Styloptocumoides australiensis sp. nov., here designated. Diagnosis. Carapace with short pseudorostrum, eyeless ocular lobe reaches its extremity. 5 free pedigerous somites. No trace of exopods in maxilliped 3 or pereopods in females. Gender. Masculine. Etymology. The new genus looks like Styloptocuma Băcescu and Muradian, 1974. Remarks. The closest genus to Styloptocumoides is Styloptocuma Băcescu and Muradian, 1974, especially regarding the carapace, with the ocular lobe reaching the tip of the pseudorostrum. The main difference is the total absence of exopods in the females of Styloptocumoides. A second difference is five instead of four free thoracic segments. ... : Published as part of Petrescu, Iorgu, 2006, Nannastacidae (Crustacea: Cumacea) from eastern Bass Strait, the south-eastern Australian slope, and Antarctica in the collections of Museum Victoria, pp. 129-173 in Memoirs of Museum Victoria 63 (2) on page 169, DOI: 10.24199/j.mmv.2006.63.14, http://zenodo.org/record/10665606 ...
