Two new species of the genus Austroniscus Vanhoeffen, 1914 (Isopoda: Asellota: Nannoniscidae) from the Antarctic shelf
During the BENDEX expedition (BENthic Disturbance-EXperiment) with RV Polarstern in Antarctic summer 2003/04, species of the genus Austroniscus Vanhoeffen, 1914 were sampled from the continental shelf of the eastern Weddell Sea. Besides Austroniscus ovalis Vanhoeffen, 1914, which is the first record...
