Abstract | The pontoniine shrimps collected by the second MUSORSTOM Expedition, 1980, to the Philippine Islands, are described. The collection includes eight species, only two of which were also captured by the first expedition. Of these, two represent new species of Periclimenes and Onycocaris and one a new genus, Plesiopontonia. A key for the identification of the twelve deep water (> 100 m) Indo-West Pacific species of Periclimenes is also provided. |
