Crustacea Caridea Brazil continental shelf slope

Abstract

The REVIZEE (Survey of the live resources from the Economic Exclusive Zone) Program collected 158 benthic samples, in Brazilian continental shelf and slope, in latitudes ranging from 13 o 00´S to 22 o 30´S, and depths ranging from 50 to 500m. In these samples, ten caridean species, distributed in six families were identified: Latreutes fucorum (Fabricius, 1798), Trachycaris restricta (A. Milne Edwards, 1878) (Hippolytidae); Anchistioides antiguensis (Schmitt, 1924) (Anchistioitidae); Brachycarpus biunguiculatus (Lucas, 1849), Leander tenuicornis (Say, 1818) (Palaemonidae, subfamily Palaemoninae); Periclimenaeus bermudensis (Armstrong, 1940), Pontonia manningi Fransen, 2000 (Palaemonidae, subfamily Pontoniinae); Leptochela serratorbita Bate, 1888 (Pasiphaeidae); Processa brasiliensis Christoffersen, 1979 (Processidae) and Pseudocheles chacei Kensley, 1983 (Bresiliidae). Nine of these species are herein redescribed and compared with data from the literature. Of these, Pseudocheles chacei is a new record for the Brazilian coast. Anchistioides antiguensis, P. manningi, L. serratorbita and P. brasiliensis had their latitudinal distribution expanded to the study area.
