Amaryllis carrascoi | |
Amaryllis carrascoi is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart. [2] [3]
It is found on the southern coastlines of Australia, from Botany Bay, New South Wales to King George Sound, Western Australia, in sublittoral zones and generally in shallow water (1 - 30 m depth), and in association with algae, sea grasses and bryozoans or on sands. [2]
The Acalyptratae or Acalyptrata are a subsection of the Schizophora, which are a section of the order Diptera, the "true flies". In various contexts the Acalyptratae also are referred to informally as the acalyptrate muscoids, or acalyptrates, as opposed to the Calyptratae. All forms of the name refer to the lack of calypters in the members of this subsection of flies. An alternative name, Acalypterae is current, though in minority usage. It was first used by Pierre-Justin-Marie Macquart in 1835 for a section of his tribe Muscides; he used it to refer to all acalyptrates plus scathophagids and phorids, but excluding Conopidae.
Gammaridea is one of the suborders of the order Amphipoda, comprising small, shrimp-like crustaceans. Until recently, in a traditional classification, it encompassed about 7,275 (92%) of the 7,900 species of amphipods described by then, in approximately 1,000 genera, divided among around 125 families. That concept of Gammaridea included almost all freshwater amphipods, while most of the members still were marine.
Lysianassidae is a family of marine amphipods, containing the following genera:
The Guadalcanal rat is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It was found only in the Solomon Islands. Since this species was collected between 1886 and 1888 it has not been seen again. It is possibly extinct.
Amaryllididae is a family of marine benthic amphipods found throughout the southern hemisphere. These smooth, laterally compressed amphipods can be distinguished by the accessory setal row of the mandible having a distal tuft. It was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart. It contains the following genera:
Psaltoda is a genus of cicada found in eastern Australia. Originally described by Carl Stål, the type species is Psaltoda moerens known as the redeye, and P. plaga is a well-known species from eastern Australia, known as the black prince. Fifteen species are recognised. Relationships of the species with each other remains unclear.
Psaltoda mossi is a species of cicada native to the vicinity of Cairns in northeastern Australia.
Arcitalitrus is a genus of beach hoppers in the family Talitridae. There are nine described species in Arcitalitrus.
Amaryllis is a genus of amphipods belonging to the family Amaryllididae. The genus was first described in 1879 by William Aitcheson Haswell, and the type species is Amaryllis macrophthalma Haswell, 1879.
Scopelocheiridae is a family of crustaceans belonging to the order Amphipoda. The family was first described in 1997 by Helen E. Stoddart and James K. Lowry. The type genus is ScopelocheirusBate, 1857.
Arbanitis ornatus is a species of armoured trap-door spider in the family Idiopidae, and is endemic to Queensland.
Parawaldeckia is a genus of amphipod crustacean in the family, Lysianassidae. and was first described by Thomas Roscoe Rede Stebbing in 1910. The type species is Parawaldeckia thomsoni.
Bellorchestia marmorata is a marine amphipod in the Talitridae family.
James Kenneth Lowry was a zoologist specialising in amphipods.
Amaryllis migo is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Amaryllis croca is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Bathyamaryllis is a genus of amphipods belonging to the family Amaryllididae. The genus was first described in 1933 by Jean M. Pirlot, and the type species is Bathyamaryllis perezii Pirlot, 1933.
Bathyamaryllis kapala is a species of amphipod in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Ariosoma kapala is an eel in the family Congridae. It was first described in 1990 by Peter H. J. Castle as Poeciloconger kapala. The holotype was collected by the New South Wales Fisheries Research Vessel Kapala on April 11, 1985, during a bottom trawl at a depth of 46–64 m. The species was named for the FRV Kapala. In 1998, Shieh-Chieh Shen moved the species to the genus Ariosoma.
Natatolana helenae is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, and was first described by Stephen John Keable in 2006. The species epithet, helenae, honours Helen Stoddart.
