New families and subfamilies of amphipod crustaceans
Cleonardopsis K.H. Barnard, 1916, has been incorrectly placed in the Eusiridae. Based on mouthpart morphology, body carination and the shape of the gnathopods it is reassigned to the Amathillopsidae in the new subfamily Cleonardopsinae. Cleonardopsinae is cosmopolitan in the deep sea. Parepimeria Ch...
