A new species of Aspidiophorus (Gastrotricha, Chaetonotida) from the Russian Far East with a key to marine species of the genus.
The Russian gastrotrich fauna is virtually unknown, particularly the marine fauna. In the ocean, investigations have beenrestricted to the White Sea, from where only three fully described species have been reported so far. In this study we describea new species of Aspidiophorus found in a sandy samp...
