| Abstract |
Two new species from the Indian Ocean are described in the skeneid genusCallodix Laseron, 1954. The new species are compared with the previously known Callodix solida Laseron, 1954 and Callodix conica Laseron, 1958. These two latter species are illustrated byphotographs and also the new species by SEM micrographs. Data on habitat, bathymetry and geographic distribution of the new species are provided. At the same time, we here assign the previously described species Anticlimax juanvianoi Rubio & Rolan, 2018, Anticlimax discus Rubio & Rolan, 2014 and Anticlimax religiosa Rubio & Rolan, 2014 to Callodix and illustrate them. |
