Genus
Pakistanapseudes
Băcescu, 1978
Remarks
. in describing his new genus,
Băcescu (1978)
did not designate a type-species. By inference, and as stated by
Bamber & Sheader (2003)
, it should be
Pakistanapseudes leptochelatus
Băcescu 1978
, herein so designated (not
Pakistanapseudes leptodactylus
Băcescu 1978
as cited by Guţu, 2008, a
lapsus calami
). It should be noted that members of this genus have a great propensity for autotomizing their appendages on fixation unless relaxed first, so in many species not all of the pereopods, chelipeds, antennules or uropods are known. In both of the new species described below, chelipeds and first pereonites were so rare that no complete exopodite was found.
