| Summary: | Subfamily Tryphosinae Lowry and Stoddart, 1997 Type genus. Tryphosa Boeck, 1871; see Lowry & Stoddart, 1997. Type species. Anonyx nanus Krøyer, 1846; designation by Boeck (1876: 180). Remarks. Lowry & Stoddart (1997) designated Tryphosa as the type genus of their subfamily Tryphosinae, which includes the genus Pseudorchomene. However, for 140 years there was endless controversy concerning the type species of Tryphosa, and the validity and definition of that genus, resulting in extreme confusion. Since the identity of the subfamily Tryphosinae is based on its type genus (Tryphosa) and the type species of its type genus, a reconstruction of the ‘ Tryphosa saga’ is given herein, in order to solve this thorny problem. Krøyer (1846) described Anonyx nanus in a long and precise description devoid of illustrations. When creating the genus Tryphosa Boeck, 1871 (the type genus of the subfamily Tryphosinae), Boeck (1871) described four species without designating a type species, in the following order: T. ... : Published as part of D'Acoz, Cedric D'Udekem & Havermans, Charlotte, 2012, Two new Pseudorchomene species from the Southern Ocean, with phylogenetic remarks on the genus and related species (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Lysianassoidea: Lysianassidae: Tryphosinae), pp. 1-50 in Zootaxa 3310 on pages 3-4, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.281003 ... |
