A New Species of Copepod from the Eddystone Shell Gravel
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent investigations of the bottom fauna off Plymouth by Spooner (1959a, b) have revealed the existence of a number of unusual and interesting crustaceans. The copepods collected during this investigation were very kindly placed at the disposal of the writer for study. A careful examination of the collection revealed the presence of a second and new species of Paramisophria Scott. This genus was established in 1897 by Scott on the basis offemales collected in Scotland. Sars (1903) described the male for the first time. Paramisophria cluthae, the only species known previously, has been recorded from Plymouth.
