Abstract

A new species of the Tethyan genus Stygocyathura (Isopoda, Cymothoida), Stygocyathura taitiin.sp., collected in a well of the Socotra Island, is described here. The new species, on the basis of the similarity of the structure of the appendix masculina, appears related to S. numeae, a thalassostygobiotic species from New Caledonia. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:pub:E3865EEB-A3F6-4AA9-819F-0C7D4CAED246.
