Urothoides is a genus of amphipod crustaceans, in the family Urothoidae. [1] Members of this genus live at depths from 2.5 to 4564 meters below the surface, [2] with about 202 occurrences. [3]
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.
