Apseudopsis Norman 1899

Genus Apseudopsis Norman, 1899 Apseudopsis tuski (Błażewicz-Paszkowycz & Bamber, 2007) comb. nov. Apseudes tuski Błażewicz-Paszkowycz & Bamber, 2007b, 116– 120, figs 4–6. Remarks. This species lacks anterolateral spiniform apophyses on the pereonites, a comb of spinules on the pereopod 5 propodus, and a dorsodistal spine on the merus of pereopod 1, so is clearly a member of Apseudopsis Norman 1899 sensu Guţu (2006), indeed close in overall morphology to A. latreilli (Milne-Edwards, 1828). Apseudopsis tuski also has unusual spination on the maxilliped palp, as is the case for two of the species of Apseudes discussed above, but in this case there are three spines on the outer margin of the second article, the most distal of which is large and robust. This species was found throughout the Bass Strait, between 37º50' and 40º07'S and 143º14' and 148º30'E, and from 18 to 84 m depth on sandy to coarse shell substrata.Apseudopsis Norman, 1899属 Apseudopsis tuski（Błażewicz-Paszkowycz & Bamber, 2007）新组合（comb. nov.） Apseudes tuski Błażewicz-Paszkowycz & Bamber, 2007b，第116–120页，图4–6。 讨论：该种胸节前侧无刺状突起，第5步足掌节无小刺梳，且第1步足长节无背末刺，因此显然隶属于Guţu（2006）界定的Apseudopsis Norman, 1899属，其整体形态与A. latreilli（Milne-Edwards, 1828）极为相近。此外，Apseudopsis tuski的颚足触须具有特殊的刺式，与前文讨论的两种Apseudes属物种一致；该种第2肢节的外缘具3根小刺，其中最末端的一根粗大粗壮。 该种广泛分布于巴斯海峡，地理范围为南纬37°50′至40°07′、东经143°14′至148°30′，栖息深度为18至84米，底质为沙质至粗贝壳碎屑。
