Description:
Text French and English. Memoires du Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, 168 Zoologie. A series on the deep-sea fauna of the tropical Indo-Pacific. This volume contains 14 articles, of which 8 are in English and 6 in French, all with abstract in English; it focuses mainly on crustaceans. Ten papers report new data on the morphology, classification and biogeography of Mysidacea, Isopoda, Euphausiacea and Decapoda, and one paper deals with Bryozoa. Altogether, 77 species, 18 genera and one family are described as new. Several papers include major revisions, notably in the anomuran family Galatheidae where the number of known species has doubled in the last few years. Our understanding of the biology of crustaceans is enhanced by the discovery of three new palaemonoid shrimps living in association with ascidians and of new gall crabs inhabiting deep-water corals, and by the description of spermatophore functional morphology in deep-sea euphausiids.
