This study on Korean cumaceans is based on the specimens collected from Geomun Island in Korea. The one species of the Genus Bodotria (Bodotriidae) is identified as new species, Bodotria paraspinifera sp. nov., which is similar to B. spinifera Gamô, 1986 in having the spinulose on body, dorso-lateral carina of carapace well-developed, carapace almost rectangular in dorsal view, carpus of pereopod 1 dilated, pereopod 2 without ischium, and uropod endopod uniarticulate. However, shape of carapace anterior portion, spinulose distribution pattern, and setae patterns and segment ratios of appendages are characteristics which serve to distinguish the new species from B. spinifera. Herein we described with full illustration containing information of the mouthparts for the new species. Also, a key to the Korean Bodotria species is provided.

Four new species of Cumacea are described from deep-sea samples collected around Salomon Islands during the French campaign SALOMON I. Bathylamprops pagesi sp. nov. and Bathylamprops caperatus sp. nov. belonging to the family Lampropidae differ from the all currently known species by the oblique lateral carina running from anterolateral angle backwards. The nannastacid Campylaspis alisae sp. nov. can be identified by the shape of the carapace carinae, especially in dorsal view. The diastylid Oxyurostylis? salomonensis sp. nov. due to the lost of the telson tip, is difficult to assign either to the genus Diastylis Say, 1818 or to the genus Oxyurostylis Calman, 1912. At the moment, it is included provisionally to the genus Oxyurostylis and it differs from the other species in the genus by its flattened eyelobe and the higher number of setae on telson.

Three new species of Cumacea belonging to the genus Bodotria were collected from the Yellow Sea in Korea. Among them, Bodotria (Bodotria) hwanghaensis sp. nov. and Bodotria (Bodotria) pseudomaculosa sp. nov. share the dorso-lateral carina on the carapace and uniarticulated uropod endopod with other Korean Bodotria species. In contrast, the last one, Bodotria (Atlantobodotria) incarinata sp. nov. lacks the dorso-lateral carina on the carapace and has a biarticulated uropod endopod. The new species B. (A.) incarinata sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other Bodotria species by the combination of carapace without dorso-lateral carina or ridge, dorso-median carina marked over whole length of carapace, antero-lateral corner of carapace rounded, antennal notch shallow, maxilliped 3 merus and carpus dilated, pereopod 1 carpus not dilated, and pereopod 2 basis with plumose seta. The new species B. (B.) hwanghaensis sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other Bodotria species by the combination of carapace almost ovoid in dorsal view, carapace lower edge of mid-lateral depression forming a faint ridge, pereopod 1 carpus not dilated, and pereopod 2 basis without plumose seta. The new species B. (B.) pseudomaculosa sp. nov. can be distinguished from all other Bodotria species by the combination of carapace surface covered with coarse squamosa-reticulate patterning formed by large, shallow pits, carapace lower edge of mid-lateral depression forming an angular ridge, pereopod 1 carpus little dilated, and pereopod 2 basis with plumose seta. We described with full illustrations, including mouthparts for the three new species. Also, a key to the Korean Bodotria species is provided.

A new genus and five new species of odiniids (Odiniidae: Traginopinae) are described from the Brazilian Amazon and Cerrado biomes: Inpauema mirador gen. nov. et sp. nov. (type species), I. catarinae sp. nov., I. gaimarii sp. nov., I. raimundoluizi sp. nov., and I. xavieri sp. nov. The genus is being characterized by a unique combination of diagnostic characters: body predominantly dark brown to black, with silvery-gray pruinose spots on inner margin of eyes, longitudinally along middle of lunule and face, on notopleuron and mesopleuron; postcranium concave from dorsal view; one pair of stout proclinate ocellar setae; postocellar setae absent; lunule shorter than frons; gena lacking upturned seta; antennae separated by a maximum distance of 2X the diameter of a single antennal socket and gonocoxal apodemes directed upward, forming an arch. A key to separate Helgreelia Gaimari, 2007 from Inpauema gen. nov. and for the new species is provided.

A new genus of Paramunnidae, Holodentata (type species: Paramunna gaussi Vanhöffen, 1914) is erected. The new genus comprises two new species: H. caeca, from the deep Weddell Sea and H. triangulata, from the Ross Sea. The new genus is distinguished by the following characters: article 3 of the antenna short and with strong denticles, mandible palp absent, article 2 of maxilliped palp longest, coxal plates visible in dorsal view in all pereonites, pleotelson broad and laterally denticulated.


This new species of Bennettites , the first petrified remains of the group to be found in the Gault of this country, is based on the structure of an ovulate cone. While it it true that only a portion of one cone is available, yet even this fragment includes hundreds of exquisitely preserved seeds which throw much new light on the structure of that most important group, the Bennettitales. Since the historic description so many years ago of the one and only specimen of the type of the group, B. Gibsonianus (see Carruthers, 1870), no other well petrified cone has been found in this country, and knowledge of the details of the fructifications of the group has been advanced chiefly by studies of the French B. Morierei , and a number of American forms. Beautiful as some of these are, the present specimen surpasses anything yet known in the Bennettitales for perfection of detailed preservation. Many points in the new species are novel, and on variations of less magnitude new fossil genera have been founded; but as in essentials the fruit conforms to the broad type “ Bennettites ,” I prefer to use that widely known generic name for the new species. The material from which the following description is compiled consists of a single fragment of a large ovulate cone. This was cut into as many sections as possible, but yielded only two longitudinal and seven transverse sections. Magnified by two diameters, five of this series of transverse sections are shown on Plate 19.

The article is devoted to the study of new representatives of the genus Kerpia Naugolnykh from Novyi Kuvak located in Shentalinsky district (northeast of Samara region). The genus Kerpia for ginkgo similar leaves was set by S.V. Naugolnykh in 1995 on the material from the Kungurian stage of the Middle Urals. Typical species of this genus is Kerpia macroloba Naugolnykh. In the diagnosis of the genus S.V. Naugolnykh showed the most important signs of this genus: presence of lobes and sinuses of the 1st and 2nd order, distinct petiole and two veins included in lamina from the petiole. Later, in 2001, from the sediments of Kazanian stage of the Southern Urals S.V. Naugolnykh described a new species Kerpia belebeica Naugolnykh. In 2013 in Novyi Kuvak location we found impressions of ginkgo similar leaves with on the one hand a great similarity with the known members of the genus Kerpia ( Kerpia macroloba and Kerpia belebeica ), but on the other hand they are clearly not identical to this representative at the species level. According to the results of the study of these impressoins in 2014 we described a new species of the genus Kerpia - Kerpia samarica N.S. Bukhman et L.M. Bukhman, 2014. In this paper we give description of both known and new findings of species Kerpia samarica and a comparison of this species with other species of the genus Kerpia .

One new species and three new distribution records for the family Crangonidae (Crustacea: Decapoda) are reported from Western Australia. A new species, Philocheras gardenensis sp. nov. is described and illustrated based on specimens collected from the Western Australia. The new species closely resembles Philocheras fasciatus (Risso, 1816), but can be distinguished easily by the absence of lobe-like folds on either side of the middle line of the carapace, the presence of a lateral carina extending from the branchiostegal spine, the longer middorsal carina and distolateral tooth of the antennal scale. A key for the genus Philocheras is provided, including currently, a total of 58 species and subspecies reported worldwide. Range extensions of three Crangonid shrimps are reported within Australia, and they are Philocheras obliquus (Fulton & Grant, 1902), Pontocaris arafurae (Bruce, 1988) and Vercoia gibbosa Baker, 1904.

Three new species of Ceraclea (Leptoceridae) from Southeast Asia are described and illustrated: Ceraclea (Athripsodina) trisdikooni n. sp. from Myanmar, C. (A.) thongnooi n. sp. from Thailand and Myanmar and C. (A.) thongpongi n. sp. from Laos. Ceraclea trisdikooni n. sp. is distinguished from other species by its inferior appendages recurved ventrad nearly 180° apically. The apex of the basal segment of each inferior appendage is more pointed. In ventral view, each inferior appendage of the new species has an obvious basoventral lobe with numerous long setae. Ceraclea thongnooi n. sp. is distinguished from those by inferior appendages that are each shaped like a seahorse head both in lateral view and ventral view. Ceraclea thongpongi n. sp. is distinguished from other species by the rectangular preanal appendages. In dorsal view, the apical end of segment X is oval and notched apically; in ventral view, the subapicodorsal lobe of each inferior appendage is rounded and straight.
