Elasmopus spinidactylus Chevreux, 1908
Elasmopus spinidactylus Chevreux 1908: 486 , figs. 9, 10; Walker, 1909: 336; Schellenberg 1938: 55; Shoemaker 1942: 13; Barnard, 1965: 504; 1970: 136, figs. 81–82; Myers 1985: 108–109, fig. 86.
Material examined
Cape D’Aguilar , Hong Kong Island, on Gelidium pusillum , 2 specimens, 1 male, 1 female, NHM Reg. Nos. 2004.2949–2950 .
Remarks
This species has been recorded previously in Hong Kong waters ( Ren 1994). These Hong Kong specimens differ from those figured by Barnard (1970) and Myers (1985) in possession of four to five spines on dactyls of pereopods 5–7, rather than three, and the lack of palmar projection, as figured in the male gnathopod 2 in Myers’ specimens from Fiji.
