Description
Summary:Remarks on Pseudoprotella spp. Three species of Pseudoprotella have been described so far: Pseudoprotella phasma (Montagu, 1804), Pseudoprotella inermis Chevreux, 1927 (redescribed by Guerra-García & Takeuhi, 2000) and Pseudoprotella bogisa (Mayer, 1903), which was recently transferred from the genus Noculacia to Pseudoprotella (see Guerra- García, 2002a). A detailed comparison of the three species is provided by Guerra-García (2002a). Pseudoprotella inermis is restricted to the Strait of Gibraltar area and North Atlantic coast of Morocco (Guerra-García & Takeuchi, 2000; Guerra-García et al., 2014) and it is characterised by total absence of dorsal body projections. Pseudoprotella bogisa has been collected so far only from Thailand waters (McCain & Steinberg, 1970; Guerra- García, 2002a) and Pseudoprotella phasma [sensu lato] is distributed along Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. Pseudoprotella phasma was initially described by Montagu (1804) as Cancer phasma. Mayer (1882) transferred it to ... : Published as part of Guerra-García, José M., Tato, Ramiro & Moreira, Juan, 2018, Caprellidae (Crustacea: Peracarida: Amphipoda) from deep-sea waters off Galicia (NW Iberian Peninsula) with the description of a new genus and three new species, pp. 151-202 in Zootaxa 4532 (2) on pages 180-183, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4532.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/2615144 ...
