Description
Summary:Genus Pseudocrangonyx Akatsuka & Komai, 1922 syn.: Pseudocrangonyx Akatsuka & Komai, 1922, p. 120, figs 1, 2, (orig. descrip.)—Tomikawa et al. 2008, p. 276 (type species redescrip.) Type species. Pseudocrangonyx shikokunis Akatsuka & Komai, 1922 [type loc.—water well in Tomioka, Tokushima Prefecture, Shikoku Isl., Japan] Remarks. Although phenotypic features clearly differentiated a new species from other representatives of the genus Pseudocrangonyx, we compared mt- cox1 sequences from 7 members of the genus to confirm their distinctness. The newly described species well as P. f e b r a s, P. kseniae, and P. korkishkoorum that are also known from Primory and P. susunaensis from neighboring Sakhalin were analyzed. Each amphipod specimen sequenced for this study was characterized by a unique cox1 sequence (Fig. 2). Five highly similar (pairwise distances 0.025–0.003) P. korkishkoorum accessions KF153105 – KF153109 formed moderately supported (75 %) clade further split into two subclades ... : Published as part of Sidorov, Dmitry A. & Gontcharov, Andrey A., 2013, Studies on subterranean amphipod crustaceans of Primory, Russia.
