Type material of Hyperia martinezii is most likely lost but the MNHN, Paris, has a male specimen (Am 1429) donated to the museum by Müller, which may represent type material. This may have been the specimen described and illustrated by Bovallius (1889). The type locality is the south-west Atlantic, off Brazil at “Dest erro”. Diagnosis. Females: Sexually mature at about 4–5 mm. Antennae 1 relatively short, about half as long as head, about twice as long as A 2. Head length equal to first two pereonites combined. Pereon globular, length about 1.6 x pleon. Gnathopod 1; basis slightly shorter than remaining articles combined, merus spoon-shaped, projecting under carpus, almost to base of propodus, with fringe of setae on distal margin; carpal process extends just past distal margin of propodus, anterior margin denticulate; posterior and distal margin of propodus also denticulate; dactylus slightly curved, length about 0.4 x propodus. Gnathopod 2 slightly longer and more slender than G 1 but similar in structure except that the merus is not produced under the carpus and lacks the spoon-shaped process. Pereopoda all of similar length. Pereopod 3; basis length almost 4 x merus; carpus with postero-distal corner produced in slight tooth with denticulate margins, length 1.4 x merus and 0.7 x propodus; posterior margin of propodus denticulate; dactylus length about 0.3 x propodus. Pereopod 4 similar in structure to P 3 except the basis is relatively shorter, the carpus is relatively longer and the postero-distal corner of the merus is not as produced. Pereopods 5–7 are similar in size and structure. Pereopod 5; basis length almost twice merus; carpus length about 1.3 x merus, about 0.8 x propodus; dactylus length half propodus. Pereopods 6 & 7; like P 5 but basis relatively longer, and P 7 with coxa fused with pereonite. Epimeral plates with postero-distal corner rounded. Uropod 1; peduncle reaching just past middle of peduncle of U 2 and just past base of peduncle of U 3; inner ramus slightly longer than outer, slightly longer than peduncle. Uropod 2; inner ramus slightly shorter than peduncle, slightly longer than outer ramus. Uropod 3; inner and outer ramus of similar length and width, about 0.7 x peduncle. Telson triangular, marginally longer than wide, slightly longer than half of peduncle of U 3. Males : Sexually mature at about 5–6 mm. Antennae almost as long as entire animal. Pereon and pleon slender, of similar length. Appendages generally more slender than in females, especially the gnathopoda, otherwise very similar in structure and relative lengths of articles, except for the following minor variations. Gnathopoda with merus not projected as far under the carpus. Pereopods 3 & 4 with postero-distal corner of the carpus less prominent. Epimeral plates relatively much longer and deeper. Uropod 1; peduncle extends to 0.7 x peduncle of U 2, to about half peduncle of U 3; inner ramus slightly shorter than peduncle; inner margins of both rami with characteristic proximal excavation. Uropod 3; rami relatively broader and shorter, length about 0.6 x peduncle. Material examined.

Females often have the pereon more inflated than in other species, so that the head is relatively smaller. Sometimes this character is exaggerated in more mature specimens. In having rounded epimeral plates it resembles H. picta , H. mediterranea and H. macrocephalus sp. nov. Hyperoche picta is readily distinguished by the hooded dactyls of the gnathopoda and H. macrocephalus sp. nov. has a relatively large head, distinctive gnathopoda and other minor charcters that distinguish it from its congeners, as detailed under that species. Thus, H. martinezii is most similar to H. mediterranea , but in that species the merus of gnathopod 2 is produced slightly under the carpus; the distal articles of the gnathopoda and pereopoda are often very hirsute and the peduncle of uropod 1 is relatively longer, almost reaching the limit of the peduncle of uropod 2. Regarding the records of H. mediterranea by Steuer (1911), Stephensen (1924) and Pirlot (1939), all of juveniles, the limited figures provided by these authors seem to represent juveniles of H. martinezii rather than H. mediterranea. In particular the relatively broad merus with the distinctive postero-distal corner of pereopod 3, and the second gnathopoda with the merus not produced under the carpus, are specific characters of H. martinezii. I have also examined the Thor material (Stephensen 1924) and, although poorly preserved, the specimens are more readily identified with H martinezii than H. mediterranea. Similarly, the records of Harbison et al . (1977, 1978), from the Caribbean Sea region, are considered a misidentification because they were based on Steuer (1911) and Stephensen (1924). This species has been recorded as an associate of the following ctenophores; Beroe gilva (Müller 1864, Lavaniegos & Ohman 1999), B. forskalii (Steuer 1911), B. cucumis (Harbison et al . 1977, 1978), Leucothea multicornis & Ocyropsis maculata (Harbison et al . 1978), and B. forskalii & Bolina hydatina (Laval 1980, Lavaniegos & Ohman 1999). Distribution. This is a relatively uncommon species, with few records from the world’s oceans, mainly from near-surface waters in tropical regions. In the Atlantic it has only been found off Brazil and off South Africa. It seems to be more common in the Pacific with records from the China Sea region and from southern California to Mexico. The Dana also collected specimens from the south-western Pacific, between New Caledonia and New Zealand, as detailed above, representing a range extension for this species. The only previous record from the Indian Ocean is off South Africa (Dick 1970). The Dana also collected specimens from this region and also from near Bali and India, the latter being new records for the North Indian Ocean. There are questionable records from the Mediterranean Sea by Laval (1980) and the records of the probable misidentifications of Steuer (1911) and Stephensen (1924), noted here, and its occurrence there requires confirmation. It has not been recorded from the North Atlantic, except for the suspect records of Pirlot (1939), from near Newfoundland and the Bay of Biscay, and Harbison et al . (1977, 1978), from the Caribbean Sea, which is surprising considering the many historical expeditions conducted in the region. At least the latter is easily explained as a minor range extension from the type locality. : Published as part of Zeidler, Wolfgang, 2015, A review of the hyperiidean amphipod genus Hyperoche Bovallius, 1887 (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Hyperiidea: Hyperiidae), with the description of a new genus to accommodate H. shihi Gasca, 2005, pp. 151-192 in Zootaxa 3905 (2) on pages 161-165, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3905.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/233364 : {"references": ["Muller, F.
