| Abstract |
Collections of deep-sea asellotes were made off the New Zealand east coast and from the Tasman Sea during two cruises of the New Zealand Oceanographic Institute's research vessel "Tangaroa". This first paper deals exclusively with the family Haploniscidae. An account of basic haploniscid morphology is given and two new genera - Chauliodoniscus and Mastigoniscus - and eight newspecies - Haploniscus miccus, H. piestus, H. saphos, H. silus, H. tangaroae, Chauliodoniscus tasmanaeus, Mastigoniscus pistus, and Hydroniscus lobocephalus - are described for the New Zealandarea. The taxonomy of the family is revised, and a list of all 82 known species and 7 genera, together with geographical and depth distributions, is given. Keys are provided at all levels. |
