Title

The identity of the deepsea caridean shrimp Glyphocrangon stenolepis and description of Glyphocrangon latens sp. nov. from Taiwan and Japan

Abstract

The availability of many topotypic specimens of the deepsea shrimp Glyphocrangon stenolepis Chace, 1984 (Caridea: Glyphocrangonidae) recently collected off of Pratas Island (Dongsha), northern South China Sea, enabled us to establish the true identity of this species. Material previously identified as Glyphocrangon stenolepis from Taiwan and Japan is found to actually represent a species new to science. The new species, Glyphocrangon latens sp. nov., differs from G. stenolepis by the more clearly divided first (submedian) carinae on the carapace in females, better developed carinae on the pleon tergites, and high degree of genetic divergence inferred from the barcode segment of the mitochondrial COI gene.
