چکیده
Three new species of the subterranean amphipod of the genus Pseudocrangonyx: P. tiunovi sp. nov., P. holsingeri sp. nov., P. sympatricus sp. nov. and male specimen for P. kseniae Sidorov, 2012 from the South Primory, Far East of Russia are described. The species were found in springs and related groundwater habitats of several river systems belonging to the Japan Sea basin. Phylogenetic analysis based on mt-cox1 sequences supported the species distinctness. A key for the South Primory species of Pseudocrangonyx is provided.

متن کاملDNA barcoding reveals extraordinary cryptic diversity in an amphipod genus: implications for desert spring conservation.
DNA barcoding has revealed unrecognized species in several animal groups. In this study we have employed DNA barcoding to examine Hyalella, a taxonomically difficult genus of amphipod crustaceans, from sites in the southern Great Basin of California and Nevada, USA. We assessed the extent of species diversity using a species screening threshold (SST) set at 10 times the average intrapopulation ...
