Fifteen species of Pinnotherinae, nine new, are recognized from localities in West Africa and are assigned to six new genera, based on features of the carapace, third maxilliped, walking legs, gonopods, and male abdomen. The genera and their included species are : Afropinnotheres, for A. crosnieri sp. nov., A. guinotae sp. nov., Pinnotheres larissae Machkevskiy, and the type-species A. monodi sp. nov. ; Alainotheres, for Pinnotheres leloeufft Crosnier ; Ernestotheres, for Pinnotheres conicola Manning and Holthuis ; Hospitotheres, for H. powelli sp. nov. ; Nepinnotheres, for N. africanus sp. nov., N. androgynus sp. nov., N. lillyae sp. nov., the type-species Cancer pinnotheres Linnaeus, N. sanqueri sp. nov., Pinnotheres tellinae Manning and Holthuis, and N. viridis sp. nov. ; and Waldotheres, for Pinnotheres mccainae Schmitt. The genus Pinnotheres is not represented in the West African fauna. |
