( Figures 6–13 View Figure 6 View Figure 7 View Figure 8 View Figure 9 View Figure 10 View Figure 11 View Figure 12 View Figure 13 )
Material examined
Four females and one male preserved in alcohol, one dissected male and one dissected female, and two males and two females prepared for SEM ( USNM 1010091 About USNM ), and one male preserved in alcohol, one dissected female and three dissected males ( USNM 242172 About USNM ) .
Distribution
Mexico: Ensenada del Pabellón lagoon, Sinaloa (24 ° 199–24 ° 359N, 107 ° 289–107 ° 459W) , El Yugo estuary, Sinaloa (23 ° 189140N, 106 ° 299W) , Urías system, Sinaloa (23 ° 119060N, 106 ° 259060W) ; Brazil: Jansen lagoon, São Luis Island , Maranhao (2 ° 319S, 44 ° 169W).
Description
The material presented herein matches the description of C. sinaloensis given by Gómez et al. (2004). The body length of the Brazilian material (from 450 to 640 Mm; mean 569 Mm, n 57) falls within the range reported earlier by Gómez et al. (2004) (from 510 to 750 Mm; mean 658 Mm, n 511). The detailed description of Cletocamptus specimens is necessary for a correct identification and species separation. Lack of detail and careless descriptions of Cletocamptus species attributed to C. deitersi worldwide have obliged several authors to establish synonymies based on poor descriptions. In order to strongly support the assignation of the Brazilian material to C. sinaloensis , the female ( Figure 6A, B View Figure 6 ) and male habitus ( Figure 11A, B View Figure 11 ), female ( Figure 6C, D View Figure 6 ) and male caudal rami ( Figure 11A, B, D View Figure 11 ), ventral view of the female ( Figure 7A View Figure 7 ) and male urosome ( Figure 11D View Figure 11 ); female mouth parts ( Figure 8A–F View Figure 8 ), male A1 ( Figure 12A View Figure 12 ), female P1–P5 ( Figures 7B View Figure 7 , 9A, B View Figure 9 , 10A, B View Figure 10 ), and male P1–P6 ( Figures 11C, D View Figure 11 , 12B, C View Figure 12 , 13A–C View Figure 13 ) of Cletocamptus sinaloensis from Jansen Lagoon are illustrated in detail. The written description has been given elsewhere (Gómez et al. 2004) and it is not presented here.
Variability
Male. Two males (USNM 242172) possess a minute seta on each P6 (see Figure 11D View Figure 11 ).
Female. USNM 242172 About USNM possesses two inner setae on the second exopodal segment of left P2; the setae of P6 of another paratype are somewhat longer (not shown) .
