Palaeocuma hessi is an extinct species of cumacean, the only species in the genus Palaeocuma, and one of very few fossil cumaceans ever discovered. It lived in the Callovian age (Middle Jurassic) in France. [1]
Grenadiers or rattails are generally large, brown to black gadiform marine fish of the subfamily Macrourinae, the largest subfamily of the family Macrouridae. Found at great depths from the Arctic to Antarctic, members of this subfamily are amongst the most abundant of the deep-sea fish.
Carl Wilhelm Erich Zimmer was a German zoologist specialising in crustaceans, especially the order Cumacea.
Cumacea is an order of small marine crustaceans of the superorder Peracarida, occasionally called hooded shrimp or comma shrimp. Their unique appearance and uniform body plan makes them easy to distinguish from other crustaceans. They live in soft-bottoms such as mud and sand, mostly in the marine environment. There are more than 1,500 species of cumaceans formally described. The species diversity of Cumacea increases with depth.
The lobed stingaree is a common species of stingray in the family Urolophidae, endemic to southern Western Australia in shallow, inshore sand and seagrass habitats. This species is plain sandy in colour above and has a broad, rounded pectoral fin disc. It is characterized by an enlarged, semicircular skin lobe of unknown function on the inner rim of each nostril. Its tail is slender, with lateral skin folds and a lance-like caudal fin but no dorsal fin. The maximum recorded width is 27 cm (11 in).
Diastylidae is one of the eight most commonly recognised families of crustaceans of the order Cumacea. They are marine creatures especially common around the 30th parallel north.
Bodotriidae is a family of crustaceans belonging to the order Cumacea. Bodotriids have a worldwide distribution in shallow and deep waters. There are over 380 described species in over 30 genera, being the most diverse cumacean family. Their external morphology differs from other cumaceans by a combination of traits that independently are not unique to the family: the telson is fused to the last abdominal segment, the dorsal part of the mandible has a boat shape (naviculoid), exopods exist on the third maxilliped and the first peraeopod, and there is a uropodal endopod with one or two articles.
Leuconidae is a family of marine hooded shrimp. The family was established by Georg Ossian Sars in his 1878 study of Mediterranean cumaceans.
Chalarostylis is a genus of cumacean crustaceans in the Lampropidae family, containing two species, including the one formerly placed in Dasylamprops, which is now considered a synonym of Chalarostylis.
Cyclaspis elegans is a species of small marine crustacean (cumacean) in the genus Cyclaspis that lives in Lyttelton Harbour, New Zealand.
Pseudocuma longicorne is a marine species of cumacean in the family Pseudocumatidae.
Pseudocuma is a genus of cumaceans, including the following species:
Mihai Băcescu was a Romanian zoologist.
Lepidotrigla guentheri is a species of marine, demersal ray-finned fish from the family Triglidae, the gurnards and sea robins. It is found in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean.
Zimmeriana is a genus of gynodiastylid cumacean. It is found from New South Wales to Western Australia, and in Japan. It contains 6 species, as of March, 2017.
Zimmeriana azumai is a gynodiastylid cumacean. This marine crustacean is found in Japan at depths between 11m and 50m.
Zimmeriana lasiodactylum is a species of cumacean, in the Gynodiastylidae family. It is found in Western Australia at depths of 9-23m. Specimens have been found of adult female and subadult male but not adult male.
Zimmeriana longirostris is a species of gynodiastylid cumacean. It is found from Western Australia to New South Wales at depths of 5-220m.
The glasshead grenadier is a species of fish in the family Macrouridae.
Sebastolobus macrochir, the broadbanded thornyhead or broadfin thorny head, is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae, the rockfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. It is found in deep waters of the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
