Description
Summary:Genus Conchoecia Dana, 1849 (part) 1849 “Conchaecia” —Dana: 51; 1890 Conchoecia Dana—Claus: 7 (partly); 1956 Conchoecia Dana—Sylvester-Bradley & Iles: 213–216; 1973 Conchoecia Dana—Poulsen: 123–124 (partly); 1906 Conchoecia Magna-Gruppe—Müller: 98–99 (partly); 1968 Conchoecia Magna-Groupe—Deevey: 76–77 (partly); 1969 Conchoecia Dana—Angel: 51–56; 1973 Conchoecia Dana—Poulsen: 123–124 (partly); 1979 Conchoecia Dana—Martens: 317 (partly); 2012 Conchoecia Dana –Drapun & Smith: 53 (partly). Type-species.— Conchoecia magna Claus, 1874. Composition.— This genus includes: Conchoecia magna Claus, 1874 Conchoecia aff. magna (sensu Martens, 1979) C. subarcuata Claus, 1890 Conchoecia rudyakovi Chavtur, sp. nov. Conchoecia angustipilata Chavtur, sp. nov. Conchoecia sculpta Chavtur, sp. nov. All these species (except C. magna) were found in the analyzed material and described below. Note three of the species included in this genus by Poulsen (1973) and by Müller (1906) in his ‘ Magna’ group will be re-classified in new genera below. Since previous descriptions of this genus (see synonymy) include species (Conchoecia macrocheira, C. lophura, C. parvidentata, C. hyalophillum, Porroecia porrecta, P. spinirostris, P. vibekensis, P. crassispina, P. parthenoda, P. pseudoparthenoda, Obtusoecia obtusata, O. antarctica, which according to our revision belong to new genera (Macrochoecilla Chavtur, gen. nov., Lophuroecia Chavtur, gen. nov., Parvidentoecia Chavtur, gen. nov., Hyalocoecia Chavtur, gen. nov. and Parthenoecia Chavtur, gen. nov.), we propose a new diagnosis for this genus. Diagnosis of genus. Adult male. Carapace. Length is between 1.40–2.55 mm. The carapace is rectangular and is not tapered anteriorly. Locations of asymmetrical glands are usual for the subtribe. There are no lateral corner glands. Frontal organ. The stem is straight. The capitulum has a broad rounded tip. First antenna. The armature of seta-e has a comb with 10–23 distal pairs of long or short straight spines and 12–20 proximal alternated spines ...
