The Caprellidea of The Snares, Antipodes Islands, Auckland Islands, Campbell Island and Macquarie Island are reported from collections made between 1973 and 1977 by the Australian Museum, and collections made between 1967 and 1972 by researchers associated with the United States Antarctic Program (USAP). One new genus, Caprellaporema, and two new species, Caprellaporema subantarctica and Pseudaeginella campbellensis are described, Caprella manneringi McCain, 1979 is redescribed, and lateral view figures of the remaining species of the subantarctic islands are also provided.
Highlights
There has been a general effort to contribute to the knowledge of Antarctic and Subantarctic fauna
Oceanographic Sorting Center (SOSC) received and sorted more than 20,000 samples of benthic invertebrates, plankton, algae and fish collected by researchers associated with the United States
The project “Synopses of the Antarctic Amphipods”, devoted to amphipod crustaceans, is another example of improving the knowledge of Antarctic marine invertebrates through the Antarctic Amphipodologists Network, which is assisted by the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels
