Phoxocephalidae G.O. Sars, 1891 (Crustacea: Amphipoda) collected by the R/V Almirante Saldanha off the coast of Uruguay and Argentina
Abstract Amphipods of the family Phoxocephalidae G.O. Sars, 1891 collected by the R/V Almirante Saldanha off the coast of Uruguay and Argentina in 1972 were examined. New records from the northern Argentine Sea and Uruguayan Sea include two species of the subfamily Harpiniinae Barnard and Drummond, 1978: Pseudharpinia jonesyi Andrade and Senna, 2020a, previously known from southeast/southern Brazil; and Pseudharpinia tupinamba Senna and Souza-Filho, 2011, recorded hitherto only from southeastern Brazil. Six species of the subfamily Phoxocephalinae G.O. Sars, 1891 were also recorded: Fuegiphoxus abjectus Barnard and Barnard, 1980, Fuegiphoxus fuegiensis (Schellenberg, 1931), Metharpinia dentiurosoma Alonso de Pina, 2003b, Metharpinia grandirama Alonso de Pina, 2003b, Metharpinia protuberantis Alonso de Pina, 2001, and Parafoxiphalus longicarpus Alonso de Pina, 2001. Redescriptions and discussion on distribution and morphological variations are presented.
