Description
Summary:LEPECHINELLA SCHELLENBERGI STEPHENSEN, 1944 Lepechinella schellenbergi Stephensen, 1944: 18–20, fig 11. Lepechinella arctica — Barnard, 1973: 10. — Barnard & Karaman, 1991: 269. Type locality: Arctic Ocean, western Greenland, 65°16.0’N, 55°4.60’W. Material examined: NHMD-82314 (prev. ZMUC- CRU-4468): lectotype (five slides); NHMD-82315 (prev. ZMUC-CRU-4469): one male paralectotype (alcohol + two slides); NHMD-82316 (prev. ZMUC- CRU-4470): one female paralectotype (alcohol + two slides); NHMD-85863 (prev. ZMUC-CRU-8019): three paralectotypes (in alcohol); NHMD-85864 (prev. ZMUC-CRU-8020): six paralectotypes (in alcohol). Remarks: Lepechinella schellenbergi was not present in IceAGE material, but for comparative purposes the type material was examined. The characters used to separate L. schellenbergi from L. arctica are not well observed, with the angle of the mandible susceptible to parallax error and molar surface subject to wear, Published as part of Lörz, Anne-Nina, Brix, Saskia, Jażdżewska, Anna M. & Hughes, Lauren Elizabeth, 2020, Diversity and distribution of North Atlantic Lepechinellidae (Amphipoda: Crustacea), pp. 1095-1122 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 190 on page 1109, DOI:10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaa024, http://zenodo.org/record/5722220
