Description
Summary:Species of shrimps are revised based on bibliographic information and on specimens collected with an Agassiz trawl (AGT) during the PUCK-156 Expedition (2001) onboard R/V Sonne in three areas along Chilean coast; off Antofagasta (22° lat. S), off Concepción (36°lat. S) and off Chiloé (42° lat. S). 111 specimens belonging to 12 species were collected, including three new records for the Chilean fauna; Metacrangon procax, Nematocarcinus productus, and Merhyppolite sp. aff. M. americana. Presence of Nematocarcinus lanceopes, Lebbeus antarcticus, Pandalopsis ampla and Sclerocrangon atrox in the collected material allows extension of their distributional ranges from sub-Antarctic to temperate areas Se revisan las especies de camarones de aguas profundas, a partir de material bibliográfico y especímenes recolectados durante la expedición PUCK 156 (2001) a bordo del B/C Sonne en tres áreas de la costa de Chile: Antofagasta (22° lat. S), Concepción (36° lat. S) y Chiloé (42° lat. S). 111 especímenes correspondientes a 12 especies fueron reconocidos, incluyendo tres nuevos registros para la carcinofauna chilena; Metacrangon procax, Nematocarcinus productus y Merhyppolite sp. aff.
