Description
Summary:Genus Cryptocopoides Sieg, 1976 Magotanais Guerrero-Kommritz & Bła ż ewicz-Paszkowycz, 2004, new synonymy Remarks. The genus Magotanais was erected for M. pruinosus Guerrero-Kommritz & Błażewicz-Paszkowycz, 2004, a species from the Antarctic. Their species accords entirely with the genus Cryptocopoides, even though those authors only compared it with the families Colletteidae Larsen & Wilson, 2002 and Tanaellidae Larsen & Wilson, 2002. For this reason we synonymize Magotanais with Cryptocopoides. Cryptocopoides itself has a confused history, since Sieg (1977), showing a lack of understanding of allopatry and of the absence of any significant dispersive ability in these taxa, synonymized the two species described at that time, C. arctica (Hansen, 1887) and C. antarctica (Vanhöffen, 1914). Sieg’s (loc cit.) redescription of “ C. arctica ” is of limited use as it was based on material from both type collections, from the Arctic and the Antarctic. It is also evident from the original descriptions ... : Published as part of Błażewicz-Paszkowycz, Magdalena & Bamber, Roger N., 2011, Tanaidomorph Tanaidacea (Crustacea: Peracarida) from Mud-Volcano and Seep Sites on the Norwegian Margin, pp. 1-35 in Zootaxa 3061 on pages 9-10, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.278931 ...
