| Abstract | The second part of our systematic study of Mysidacea from the Bay of Biscay continental slope deals with 25 species belonging to the Lophogastridae, Eucopiidae and Mysidae families (with the exception of the Erythropim nibe). Among these species, Leptomysis megalops, Mysidetes farrani, Mysideis parva and Mysidella typica are the subject of a complement of description. Inside Gnathophausia genera, a detailed study of G. zoea species has allowed us to bring out important sexual differences about the antennal scale and the first two pairs of pleopods, thanks to which it becomes possible to define the sexual maturity size for males. The Heteromysis norvegica species is validated again and we give the morphological characters differentiating it from the American species II. formosa with which it had been confounded. At last, a new species of Mysidella is described and figured. |
