Species found in the area . Andaniexis andaniexis n.sp. and A. elinae n.sp. Remarks . These are the first records of Andaniexis in the area, although the genus has previously been recorded east of Papua New Guinea ( A. stylifer ). As is evident from Table 1, two of the species within the genus ( A. eilae and A. spongicola ) possess a cleft telson, and do thus seem to be more closely related to the genus Glorandaniotes . Furthermore, the two species A. spinescens and A. tridentata have a dorsal carina on pleonites 1–3, and thus seem to be related to the genus Parandaniexis . However, pending a revision of the entire family (Berge & Vader, 2001b), no changes are here made in the classification of these species. Description of the characters: character 1 : pleonites dorsally, a— smooth, b—dentate; character 2 : antenna 1 flagellum, number of articles; character 3 : maxilla 1 palp, a—between 4 and 8 robust setae, b—>10 robust setae; character 4 : maxilliped inner plate number of nodular setae; character 5 : coxa 4 distally, a—broad, b—narrow/pointed; character 6 : pereopod 4 basis, a—with long setae, b—without long setae; character 7 : pereopod 7 basis anteriorly, a—straight, b—weakly concave; character 8 : telson apically, a—rounded, b—pointed; character 9 : telson, a—entire, b—cleft. : Published as part of Jørgen Berge, 2003, Stegocephalidae (Crustacea: Amphipoda) from Australia and New Zealand, With Descriptions of Eight New Species, pp. 85-112 in Records of the Australian Museum 55 on page 87 : {"references": ["Boeck, A., 1871.
