Helgoländer Meeresuntersuchungen volume 45, pages 97–106 (1991)
Abstract
A total of 27 halacarid species were found in sediments taken at 5–25 m depth off the western coast of Sweden. The four speciesCopidognathus magnipalpus, Actacarus obductus, Coloboceras longiusculus, andLohmannella multisetosa are new to the fauna of the northeastern North Atlantic; taxonomic diagnoses of these species are given.Anomalohalacarus septentrionalis andCamactognathus borealis, both new species, are described.
