| Abstract |
Jassa slatteryi and Ampithoe valida were collected in the Bay of Biscay. Jassa slatteryi, a cosmopolitan species, was signalized before in European waters, in the Mediterranean Sea and in Brittany. Specimens collected in Arcachon Bay represent the second signalization on the European Atlantic coast. Ampithoe valida, a non-native species originally described in North America, was signalised in European waters before, in the Mediterranean Sea, Portugal and the Netherlands. Its presence in Arcachon Bay and Hossegor Lake is a first record on the French Atlantic coast for this species. |
