A new mantis shrimp of the genus Chorisquilla Manning, 1969 from French Polynesia (Crustacea: Stomatopoda: Protosquillidae)

摘要

Chorisquilla similis, new species, is described from French Polynesia. It most closely resembles C. quinquelobata (Gordon, 1935) from Christmas Island, Indian Ocean, but differs chiefly in having the inner proximal margin of the dactylus of the raptorial claw inflated and bearing a prominent, anteriorly directed tubercle; a more elongate median boss of the telson; and the submedian bosses of AS6 separated by a deep fissure instead of a shallow groove.
