Abstract |
A new genus, Neodoxomysis, is established for two new species, N. elongata and N. sahulensis, collected from Sahul Shelf. The new genus is closely related to Doxomysis, but is different from the latter genus in having only a single strong, modified seta on the exopod of the fourth male pleopod, as compared with two in Doxomysis. Doxomysis littoralis Tattersall, 1922, is transferred to the new genus. |
