Description
Summary:Chorismus antarcticus (Pfeffer, 1887) A circum-Antarctic benthic shelf species (0–915 m), reaching South Georgia, the Falkland Islands and Southern Patagonia (Holthuis 1952; Garth et al. 1967; Ledoyer 1989; Komai et al. 1996), although possibly confused with C. tuberculatus in sub-Antarctic areas. Biological differences were observed between populations from South Georgia and the Weddell Sea (Gorny et al. 1992). A very common species, with a preference for bottoms rich in epifauna (personal observations of the first author). Synonym: Hippolyte romanchei A. Milne-Edwards, 1891 (type locality: Tierra del Fuego). ... : Published as part of D'Acoz, Cédric D'Udekem & Degrave, Sammy, 2018, A new genus and species of large-bodied caridean shrimp from the Crozet Islands, Southern Ocean (Crustacea, Decapoda, Lipkiidae) with a checklist of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic shrimps, pp. 201-240 in Zootaxa 4392 (2) on page 223, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4392.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/1195302 ...
