Abstract
A new Japanese record of the Holarctic clam shrimp Lynceus brachyurus is presented with key morphological characteristics and habitat information. The rostrum, clasper, telson, and lamina abdominalis of this insular record are similar to those of the common form of L. brachyurus in continental populations, and our specimens fall within the previously reported species variability.
期刊介绍:
Plankton and Benthos Research is a peer-reviewed journal publishing quarterly original papers, reviews and notes dealing with any aspect of the biology and ecology of planktonic and benthic organisms and their interactions with the environment in any aquatic system, and is open to all scientists around the world. Submission of a paper is held to imply that it represents an original contribution not previously published and that it is not being considered elsewhere.
