A new beach-hopper species, Paciforchestia gageoensis, new species (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Talitridae), from South Korea

摘要

Paciforchestia gageoensis new species, a new species of beach-hopper, was collected from gravel beaches in South Korea. This new species can be easily distinguished from other congeners by the morphology of its gills, coxal plate 5, pereopodal dactylus, pleopods, and uropods. A description of the morphological characteristics for P. gageoensis and a comparison of it and related species are provided in the text.
