Abstract

A taxonomic study on stenothoid amphipods from the area of South Shetland Islands (Antarctica), led to the description ofThaumatelsonella kingelepha gen. and sp. nov. The systematic position ofPseudothaumatelson cyproides Nicholls, 1938 is discussed, as the redescription by Bellan-Santini & Ledoyer (1986) based on the first recovery of that species included differences from the diagnosis of the genus.
