Fossil Tanaidacea.

Abstract

All known fossil tanaidaceans have been restudied and a taxonomic revision is provided. Some small alterations in the reconstruction of Anthracocaris scotica and Cryptocaris hootchi are made; Ophthalmapseudes rhenanus is reassigned to the Anthracocaridomorpha; O. friedericianus and O. acutirostris are placed in their own genus Jurapseudes, and O. giganteus (in part) is placed within its own genus Carlclausus, all within a new superfamily Jurapseudoidea within the suborder Apseudomorpha; and O. giganteus (in part) is placed within another new genus, Cretitanais, within its own superfamily within the Tanaidomorpha.-Authors
