摘要
The amphipod Epimeria reoproi n. sp., collected from the Antarctic Ocean, is described in detail. It has a smooth anterior pereon and a carina that begins on pereonite 5. This is similar to Epimeria vaderi Coleman, 1998 and to a specimen that has been described by Andres (1985). The carinal processes increase in size on the pleon in posterior direction. The head bears a strongly flexed rostrum. The coxa of pereiopod 4 is characteristically shaped, it is drawn out into a long, posteriorly flexed, acute apex. The posteroventral angles of the bases of pereiopods 5-6 are acutely produced.
