Epimeria cleo sp. nov., a new crested amphipod from the Ross Sea, Antarctica, with notes on its phylogenetic affinities (Crustacea, Amphipoda, Eusiroidea, Epimeriidae)
A new crested amphipod, Epimeria cleo sp. nov., is described after specimens collected in the western Ross Sea, Southern Ocean, at 151–409 m depth. This increases the number of Epimeria species known from the Ross Sea to eleven. This new species belongs to the subgenus Drakepimeria d'Udekem d...
