Scina similis Stebbing, 1895 Eastern Indian: 1013485 , 6/35, [58.65°S 117.133°E], 750 m. Remarks : A relatively common species known from scattered records, mainly from tropical regions of all the world’s oceans, including the Mediterranean Sea. It seems to be most common in near-surface waters (0–200 m). The only previous record from Antarctic waters is from the Western Indian Ocean Sector, north-east of Prydz Bay (Wagler 1927). The above record from the Eastern Indian Ocean Sector confirms its occurrence in that region. : Published as part of Zeidler, Wolfgang, 2019, New and additional records of hyperiidean amphipods of the infraorder Physosomata (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Hyperiidea) from the Antarctic Zone of the Southern Ocean, pp. 510-520 in Zootaxa 4576 (3) on page 518, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4576.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/3715770 : {"references": ["Wagler, E.
