Leucothoe weddellensis Krapp-Schickel & Broyer 2014, sp. nov.
Leucothoe weddellensis sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 2069CF2D-D7B6-4A96-874A-46818C6A3344 Figs 19-27 sub L. spinicarpa variant 1 – Holman & Watling 1983: 227-230 fig. 10 (but see also discussion about L. spinicarpa variant 1 and 2). Etymology The latinized adjective refers to the fact that much of the material comes from the Weddell Sea. Type material Holotype ♀ ov. 20 mm (in alcohol) (RBINS, Brussels, I.G. 31073/ INV. 103464); Polarstern ANT XIX/3 (ANDEEP I): sta. PS61/067 GSN; 4 Feb. 02; Scotia Sea, north to Elephant Island; 60°55’53”S, 55°27’38”W to 60°55’09”S, 55°24’50”W; 115-182 m; bottom trawl; coll. C. De Broyer, P. Dauby & F. Nyssen. Preliminary remarks Before starting to cite the localities, we have to explain the division in two parts: Quite like Holman & Watling (loc. cit.) we hesitated between attributing the entire material to one species, or dividing the material into two new species. Like the cited authors we first separated the material into two different size classes with large or small ovigerous females, but then could not find any clearcut morphological definition which would not show here or there intermediate structures. Unfortunately, we have no clue about the life span of these females and how often they become ovigerous, thus all the observed tiny differences could also be due to allometry. Therefore we kept the locality citations separated and first gave information about the smaller specimens, followed by the larger ones. This might help to continue gathering observations within this so puzzling genus. Diagnosis for the material of 6-14 mm length Eyes big, round. Mandibular palp ratio art. 3:art. 2 = 0.6.

On p. 229 the authors wrote: “[...] smaller specimens [in comparison to the following species of 20 mm] tending not to have this tooth [on Ep 3 posterodistal corner] or distinctive shape of Cx 3.[...] At stations where both variants 1 and 2 occurred, there is also a clear size dichotomy.” Diagnosis for the material of 14-24 mm length Eyes large, round.

Holman & Watling (1983) recorded “ L. spinicarpa variant 1” in the Drake Passage, south of Tierra del Fuego (Eltanin 9, sta. 740; 18 Sep. 1963; 56°06-07’S, 66°19’-30’W; 384-494 m), on the South Georgia shelf (Islas Orcadas 575, sta. 82; 6 Jun. 1975; 55°29.0’S, 35°20.5’W; 413-462 m; sta. 90; 7 Jun. 1975; 54°50.6’S, 37°23.8’W; 223-227 m), in the Scotia Sea (Eltanin 6, sta. 410; 31 Dec. 1962; 61°18’-20’S, 56°09’-10’W; 220-240 m) and north of the Antarctic Peninsula (Eltanin 12, sta. 1003; 15 Mar. 1964; 62°41’S, 54°43’W; 210-220 m). Remarks In Holman & Watling (1983: 227, Fig. 10) males are illustrated which are 19-24 mm long and match perfectly to the here illustrated material of 20 mm. Holman & Watling (l.c.: 229) defined their variant 1 as follows: “...ventral margin of coxa 3 bilobed in larger specimens, coxa 4 not excavate posteriorly. Gnathopod 1 very similar to that illustrated by Sars (1895) for L. spinicarpa, dactyl nearly half length and twice width of propodus, latter 5 times as long as wide. Gnathopod 2, distal margin of article 5 bifurcate in large males. Third epimeron posterodistal corner with small tooth but without distinct sinus above; however, smaller specimens tending not to have this tooth or distinctive coxa 3 shape....” Differences to the smaller material are, besides the nearly double length of mature females, the length of Md palp art. 3 (we doubt that there can be such a strong allometry), the shape of Cx 3, P 5-7 basis and U 3 rami. However, the main reason of our hesitation is that we found samples with both small and larger ovigerous females, and with larger specimens with and smaller ones without the characteristic shape of Cx 3 living together. Within all hitherto known Leucothoe species only L. serraticarpa Della Valle, 1893 has a distal lobation on a coxa in large specimens (like here on Cx 3), but in the former it is in Cx 4 and has a different shape.Published as part of Krapp-Schickel, Traudl & Broyer, Claude De, 2014, Revision of Leucothoe (Amphipoda, Crustacea) from the Southern Ocean: a cosmopolitanism concept is vanishing, pp. 1-55 in European Journal of Taxonomy 80 on pages 38-52, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2014.80, http://zenodo.org/record/386090

Distribution Southern Ocean: Eastern Weddell Sea (De Broyer et al. 2006); Northwestern Weddell Sea: Powell Basin (De Broyer et al. 2006); Scotia Sea (this paper). Southwest Atlantic: Argentine Abyssal Basin (this paper). Depth range Bottom records: 2194 m (De Broyer et al. 2006) to 4586 m (this paper). Pelagic records: 3001 m (this paper). Remarks Abyssorchomene shannonae sp. nov. is easily differentiated from the smooth bodied Antarctic species A. scotianensis (Andres, 1983) in possessing a slight, but distinct dorsoposterior rounded hump on pereonites 1–7 and pleonites 1–2. The new species also differs from A. scotianensis by the very steeply angled, truncate bevel of the basis of pereopod 7 (vs weakly angled bevel) and the uropod 3 inner ramus length, which greatly exceeds the distal end of article 1 of the outer ramus (vs just reaching the distal end). Abyssorchomene shannonae sp. nov. is superficially very similar to A. abyssorum and A. patriciae sp. nov., as these species also possess the dorsoposterior hump on the pereonites and pleonites. However, A. shannonae differs from both these species in many characters. From A. abyssorum, it differs in the much greater distally widened coxa 1 (1.4–1.7× proximal width vs 1.2×); the (mature) female gnathopod 2 propodus which is broad, with a palm concavity (length less than 1.5 × width vs narrow, ~ 2.4× width and lacking concavity); the coxa 5 posteroventral lobe which is broadly rounded (vs narrowly rounded); the very strongly, steeply angled truncated bevel of the basis of pereopod 7 (vs weakly angled bevel) and the shorter uropod 3 inner ramus, which extends to about 20–25% of the length of article 2 of the outer ramus (vs extends to 70% of the length of article 2 of the outer ramus). Lastly, from A. patriciae sp. nov. it differs in the shape of the lateral head lobe, with dorsal and ventral margins nearly similar (vs dorsal and ventral margins not similar, dorsal margin strongly convex, ventral margin nearly straight); the female gnathopod 2 propodus with anterodistal margin broadly expanded and protruding, dactylus tiny, inserted near the bottom of the distal margin (vs anterodistal margin not expanded and protruding, dactylus large, inserted at the top of the distal margin); the coxa 5 posteroventral lobe which is broadly and evenly rounded (vs narrowly rounded, posterior margin straight posterodistally); the longer uropod 1 peduncle, which is 1.6 × the length of the outer ramus (vs 1.45 ×) and the length of the uropod 3 inner ramus, which reaches to 20–25% of article 2 of uropod 3 outer ramus (vs reaching to ~ 63% of article 2 of outer ramus).Published as part of Hendrycks, Ed A. & Broyer, Claude De, 2022, New deep-sea Atlantic and Antarctic species of Abyssorchomene De Broyer, 1984 (Amphipoda, Lysianassoidea, Uristidae) with a redescription of A. abyssorum (Stebbing, 1888), pp. 1-76 in European Journal of Taxonomy 825 on pages 53-67, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.825.1829, http://zenodo.org/record/668662
