No full textElthusa sigani Bruce, 1990 (Fig. 8 A, B) Elthusa sigani Bruce, 1990: 270–276, figs. 16–18.— Van der Wal, Smit & Hadfield, 2019: 1–37. Type material. Female holotype, Queensland Museum (QM W13080). For paratype details see Bruce (1990). Type locality. Australia, south-eastern Queensland, North Stradbroke Island, Moreton Bay (Bruce 1990). Type host. Siganus spinus (Linnaeus, 1758) (see Bruce 1990). Material examined. 1 matured ♁ (8.34 mm TL, 5.16 mm W), Leg 4, ST 110, EEZ, 04°39.03’N; 104°53.43’E, 14 June 2016, from Russell's lionfish (Pterois russelli), coll. Muhammad ‘ Arif bin Samshuri, SEAFDEC crew (UMT Crus 01191). Host. Reported from the families Siganidae: Siganus spinus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Bruce 1990) and Scorpaenidae: Pterois russelii Bennett, 1831 (present material). Distribution. Australia, Moreton Bay, (Bruce 1990); Peninsular Malaysia, South China Sea (present material). Remarks. Elthusa sigani is reported from Malaysian waters for the first time and being characterised by even body; rostrum broad; antennula and antenna subequal in length; antennulae separate; coxae visible dorsally (particularly coxae 5–7); uropods rounded, not exceeding pleotelson posterior margin; wide pleon. E. sigani has similar coxal and pleon morphology (see Bruce 1990) with E. raunaudii (Milne-Edwards, 1840) but can be differentiated by the difference in body size (> 20 mm vs. ≤ 13 mm); pereopods 5–7 morphology (proximal carina with a boss vs. smooth carina); body surface (harder exterior vs. softer exterior). Our specimen mostly agrees with the illustrations given by Bruce (1990), but it is not as twisted as Bruce’s (1990) female specimen.Published as part of Martin, Melissa B., Tuah, Alia, Muhamad, Juariah H. & Bruce, Niel L., 2022, A review of the family Cymothoidae (Isopoda: Cymothooidea) infesting marine fishes from Malaysian waters, with new host and geographical records, pp. 1-36 in Zootaxa 5222 (1) on page 13, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5222.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/745638
Aegiochus gracilipes (Hansen, 1895) a senior synonym of Aegiochus tara Bruce, 2009 (Crustacea: Isopoda: Aegidae)
No full textAegiochus gracilipes Hansen, 1895 was described from a single immature specimen accompanied by three figures (Hansen 1895). Hansen (1916) subsequently reported the species without figures. Over the next 100 years A. gracilipes only appeared in the literature as a citation in larger review and cataloguing studies. Most significantly, Bruce (2009) transferred A. gracilipes from Aega Leach, 1815 to Aegiochus Bovallius, 1885, as part of a broader study redefining the morphological characters used to distinguish Aegiochus. To the present day A. gracilipes, described from the north-eastern Atlantic off the Outer Hebrides, Scotland, is known only from the original figures and its limited primary descriptio
Tax Receipt, B. L. Bruce, 1890
No full textThe Angus VV Ranch was founded in the 1880's by James E. Cree, and was located in the vicinity of the town of Angus, Lincoln County, New Mexico. Cree is credited with introducing the Angus breed of cattle to New Mexico. Documents in this collection range in date from 1885 to 1946, but the bulk discusses events concerning cattle rustling in the 1890's

Remarks. Cirolana thailandica has been discussed completely in the original description. The most similar species to C. thailandica is C. siamensis (see remarks on the C. thailandica). The co-occurrence of both species at a single locality in West Papua indicates that the two species can be sympatric as has been shown in Thailand (Rodcharoen et al. 2016). Distribution. Thailand (Rodcharoen et al. 2016); range extended now to Singapore and West Papua (Fig 1).Published as part of Bruce, Niel L., 2017, Review of the species of the Cirolana ' parva - group' (Cirolanidae: Isopoda: Crustacea) in Indonesian and Singaporean waters, pp. 401-435 in Zootaxa 4317 (3) on page 417, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4317.3.1, http://zenodo.org/record/88463
