Amphipod Crustacean

Stygonyx courtneyi n.gen., n.sp. (Amphipoda: Crangonyctidae) is described from hypogean waters of northwestern Oregon. This new species appears most closely allied taxonomically with one subgroup of the advanced hypogean genus Stygobromus. However, the unique form of uropod 3 and the relatively unmodified (plesiomorphic) form of the coxal and pleon plates and oostegites justify its recognition as the type of a new genus that is intermediate between Stygobromus and the primitive, mainly epigean, genus Crangonyx.

Deep Sea Sediments

A new genus and species of Desmodoridae was found in deep-sea sediments of the Campos Basin. Although the cuticle annulation of the new species is similar to members of Desmodorinae, many morphological features are strong enough to classify it within the Spiriniinae. Spirodesma magdae nov. gen. nov. sp. is characterized mainly by the presence of a unique form of unispired amphids, with circular amphideal fovea, and a buccal cavity with three equal teeth, one dorsal and two ventrosublateral.
