Description
Summary:This paper reports on four deep-sea species of cahdean shrimp collected during the JARE-35 cruise in the Indian Ocean Sector of the Antarctic Ocean: Nematocarcinus lanceopes BATE, 1888 (Nematocarcinidae); Chorismus antarcticus (PFEFFER, 1887) (Hippolytidae); Lebbeus antarcticus (HALE, 1941) (Hippolytidae); Notocrangon antarcticus (PFEFFER, 1887) (Crangonidae). A small collection taken during the JARE-26 cruise, containing C. antarcticus and N. antarcticus, is also included. The identification of the present specimens with N. lanceopes was confirmed in comparison with the syntypes. Eight of 40 syntypes of Acanthephyra antarctica BAGE, 1938 were also reexamined, and its identity with N. lanceopes was confirmed. Three syntypes, one male and two females, of N. lanceopes, which are now in poor condition, were redescribed; and other material enabled us to complete the description of N. lanceopes. Three other species were also described and illustrated in detail to supplement previous knowledge on morphology of these species.
