Description
Summary:Tenagomysis sp. (Fig. 8) Material examined NIWA 3957: 1 ɗ (broken, 6.2 mm from tip of rostrum to posterior end of last abdominal somite), stn NE071, 41 ° 25.6´S 173 ° 27.6´E, Nelson, 24 Jan. 2002, 7 m, epibenthic sled. Remarks This unidentified specimen lacks the uropods and the telson. However, it is readily distinguished from other species of the genus, except for T. novaezealandiae Thomson, 1900, by the armature of the fourth pleopod (Fig. 8 F, G). The fourth male pleopod of T . novaezealandiae has not been described (Thomson 1900, Tattersall 1923). The present specimen can be distinguished from T. novaezealandiae by the rounded anterolateral corner of the carapace, which is pointed in T. novaezealandiae . This unidentified specimen is probably a new species, but as the specimen is not fully intact, it is recorded as Tenagomysis sp. in the present study. : Published as part of Fukuoka, Kouki & Bruce, Niel L., 2005, A new species of Tenagomysis (Crustacea: Mysida: Mysidae) from New Zealand with notes on three Tenagomysis species, pp. 1-15 in Zootaxa 878 on pages 13-14, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.170897 : {"references": ["Thomson, G.
