A new genus of marine chaetonotids (Gastrotricha), with a description of two new species from Greenland and Denmark
Two new marine species of Gastrotricha Chaetonotidae are described from West Greenland and Denmark. Some peculiar features suggest the affiliation of the two species to a newgenus, for which the name Diuronotus is proposed. The affinity of these gastrotrichs with species of Musellifer, the only genu...
