- Title
- Isopoda Epicaridea from deep water around North and Central America
- Abstract
- A total of 39 species of epicarid isopods, four of these unidentified, are recorded from deep water around North and Central America. Most species (27) belong to the Bopyridae with 17 genera, including five species of Munidion and at least four species of Pseudione. Other families are the Colypuridae (1 sp.), the Cryptoniscidae (1 sp.), the Dajidae (9 spp.), and the Entophilidae (1 sp.). Of the 35 identified species, about half (17) were described in 1930 or earlier, and the rest after 1972.
