Description
Summary:Belonectes daytoni sp. nov. (Figs 11 – 13) Material examined. Holotype, male (2.1 mm) (ZMH K- 42039), ANDEEP III St. 81 – 8 – S, 24 February 2005, 70°31.08’ – 32.23’S, 14°34.82’ – 14°34.90’W, 4382 m. Etymology. The species is named after marine biologist, Dr. Paul Dayton for his important contributions to Southern Ocean benthic marine biology. Description. Body (Fig. 11) length 2.4 width of pereonite 5, body height 0.3 of body length. Head length 0.45 width, rostrum length 0.95 head length. Rostrum width subequal to length, and 1.6 antennula basal width. Cephalic keel weakly expressed, clypeus 1.6 as wide and 0.5 as long as labrum. Pereonite 1 almost as wide as head, length 3.5 head length behind antennula insertion; pereonites 2–4 slightly broader, almost twice as long as lateral margins and slightly shorter medially than pereonite 1, anterolateral margin of pereonites 1–4 acute in dorsal view; coxae anterior projection acute in dorsal view. Natasome length 0.75 body length, width 1.3 head width; pereonite ... : Published as part of Malyutina, Marina V. & Brandt, Angelika, 2009, Description of three new species of the deep-sea munnopsid genus Belonectes (Crustacea, Isopoda, Asellota) from the Weddell Sea, Southern Ocean, pp. 33-52 in Zootaxa 2277 on pages 48-51, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.191112 ...
