Abstract

REDESCRIPTION OF A LITTLE KNOWN CRANGONID SHRIMP, METACRANGON LAEVIS (YOKOYA, 1933) (DECAPODA, CARIDEA) FROM HOKKAIDO, JAPAN BY TOMOYUKI KOMAI Natural History Museum & Institute, Chiba, 955-2 Aoba-cho, Chuoku, Chiba 260, Japan ABSTRACT A little known crangonid, Metacrangon laevis (Yokoya, 1933), is redescribed and illustrated in detail on the basis of specimens recently collected from Hokkaido, Japan. It is distinguishable from close relatives by the absence of paired dorsal carinae on the sixth abdominal somite. Brief notes on the biology are also included. RÉSUMÉ Un crangonide peu connu, Metacrangon laevis (Yokoya, 1933), est redécrit et figuré en détail d'après des spécimens
