The Genus Strandesia and other Cypricercini (Crustacea, Ostracoda) in the West Indies.

Abstract

The distribution and ecology of two species of Strandesia, S. longula Broodbakker, 1983, and S. stocki Broodbakker, 1983, are discussed. Both species are very common in Haiti, and S. longula is also common in the Bahamas. Both are found on some of the Lesser Antilles, and therefore they are assumed to have a much wider distribution.
