Gelyella droguei n. g., n. sp., curieux Harpacticide des eaux souterraines continentales de la nouvelle famille des Gelyellidae

Abstract

A nex species collected in the subterranean water of a karstic system near Montpellier (France), is described. Numerous original characters, such as primitive structure of mouthparts, lack of P4 and P5, reduction of segmentation in swimming legs, place this species in a new genus and family. © 1977 Masson.
