Vibilia edwardsi Bate Vibilia edwardsi Bate, 1861: 2–4, pl. 1, figs 1, 2. — Bate 1862: 300–302, pl. 49, figs 6, 7. Streets 1877: 128. Bovallius 1887c: 62­63, text fig. Behning 1913b: 216–217. Type material Type material could not be located at the BMNH or MNHN and is presumed lost. The type locality is given as the South Atlantic Ocean, “Near Iles de Powel” (South Orkney Islands). Remarks This is most likely V. antarctica as suggested by Barnard (1932) and Vinogradov et al . (1982). However, Bate figures and describes pereopods 5 and 6 as being twice as long as pereopods 3 and 4, which is unlike any species of Vibilia . Also, the carpal process of gnathopod 2 is too short for typical V. antarctica . Thus, Vibilia edwardsi is at best, a doubtful synonym of V. antarctica . : Published as part of Zeidler, Wolfgang, 2003, A review of the hyperiidean amphipod superfamily Vibilioidea Bowman and Gruner, 1973 (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Hyperiidea), pp. 1-104 in Zootaxa 280 (1) on page 75, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.280.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5019514 : {"references": ["Bate, C.
