The Cumacean (Crustacea: Peracarida) Genus Petalosarsia (Pseudocumatidae) from the Pacific Ocean
The distribution of the cumacean family Pseudocumatidae is restricted to the North Atlantic, Mediterranean and brackishwaters of the Pont-Caspian region, except for three known species of the genus Petalosarsia. The present study describes ninespecies of Petalosarsia from Japanese waters, the Sulu S...
