Grynaminna tamakii, new genus, new species, is described from specimens taken in a small area near the south end of Shimabara Peninsula, western Kyushu, Japan. The new genus shares with the eight known callichirine callianassid genera presence of a dorsal oval, maxilliped 3 with ovate propodus and slender dactylus, and pleopods 3-5 with "stubby" appendices internae. It most resembles Callichirus but differs in possessing an elongate-oval uropodal endopod, absence of a meral hook on the major…

NEW CRETACEOUS AND EOCENE CALLIANASSOIDEA (THALASSINIDEA, DECAPODA) FROM ALGARROBO, CHILE

New decapod crustacean fossils collected from Eocene rocks of Algarrobo, Chile, have yielded a new genus and species of callianassid, Melipal chilensis, and marked sexual dimorphism of the major cheliped and pronounced heterochely in the new taxon.

NEW CRETACEOUS AND EOCENE CALLIANASSOIDEA (THALASSINIDEA, DECAPODA)

New decapod crustacean fossils collected from Eocene rocks of Algarrobo, Chile, have yielded a new genus and species of callianassid, Melipal chilensis, and marked sexual dimorphism of the major cheliped and pronounced heterochely in the new taxon is recognized.

Podocallichirus laepaensis, a New Ghost Shrimp (Crustacea, Decapoda, Callianassidae) from the Late Miocene of Southwest Spain

The new ghost shrimp is identified as the producer of trace fossils and the assignment of the new form to the respective genus is based mainly on the morphology of the major cheliped merus and provides useful implications for paleontological studies.

How to distinguish Neocallichirus, Sergio, Podocallichirus and Grynaminna (Decapoda: Callianassidae: Callichirinae) from each other in the fossil record?

One of the greatest challenges of modern decapod crustacean palaeontology is the interpretation, both systematic and ecological, of callianassid burrowing ghost shrimps (Decapoda: Axiidea:…

Neogene and Quaternary Ghost Shrimps and Crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda) from the Philippines

Twenty species in 17 genera of decapod crustaceans are reported from the Upper Miocene Mapulo Formation in Taysan, Batangas, southern Luzon and the Lower Pleistocene Man- dog Formation in Davao City,…

Thalassinidean shrimps (Crustacea: Decapoda) from north-western Australia, including five new species

One family, two subfamilies and 22 thalassinidean genera additional to those listed by Poore (1994), plus recent synonymies are tabulated, bringing the number of families and genera to 95.

The fossil record of Glypturus Stimpson, 1866 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Axiidea, Callianassidae) revisited, with notes on palaeoecology and palaeobiogeography

It is argued that Glypturus is of Tethyan origin, with a stratigraphi- cal range going as far back as the Eocene, and is considered to be linked with tropical to subtropical, nearshore carbonate environments of normal salinity.

Redescription of two ghost shrimps (Decapoda: Axiidea: Callianassidae) from the Middle Miocene of the Central Paratethys: systematics, intraspecific variation, and in situ preservation

Two Middle Miocene burrowing ghost shrimps of the Central Paratethys exhibits two distinct morphotypes interpreted herein as possible sexual dimorpism.

Thalassinidean Shrimps (Crustacea : Decapoda) from the Ogasawara Islands Japan

Six thalassinidean species (Crustacea: Decapoda) are reported from the oceanic Ogasawara Is‑ lands Japan one of which is new to science and taxonomic positions of the new taxa are discussed.

Parasites (Isopoda: Epicaridea and Nematoda) from ghost and mud shrimp (Decapoda: Axiidea and Gebiidea) with descriptions of a new genus and a new species of bopyrid isopod and clarification of Pseudione Kossmann, 1881.

Bopyrid isopods represent a large, diverse taxon and the findings help clarify the taxonomy of those species found on ghost and mud shrimps.

A computer-aided phylogenetic analysis of the families has confirmed the monophyly of the infraorder, based largely on the unique possession of a setose lower margin to pereopod 2, and the Thalassinidea are divided into three superfamilies: Thalassinoidea and Callianassoidea, more closely related to each other than to Axioidea.
