( Fig. 1 E–H) Type material. HOLOTYPE : AM P73039, male ( 24 mm ), Adamson’s Peak, Hartz Mountains National Park, Tasmania, Australia , 43°20'56.32"S , 146°49'56.46"E , stream, 1200 m a.s.l., coll. S. Jarman. PARATYPES : AM P73040, 2 males ( 17–26 mm ), 5 females ( 17–30 mm ), 4 juveniles , type locality. Diagnosis . Anaspides with telson posterior margin angular; posterior margin fully lined with more than 20, slender, close-set spines. Eyes not reduced; cornea pigmented, subglobular, slightly wider than stalk, longer than half length of stalk. Outer antennular flagellum half body length. Inner antennular flagellum of adult males with 4 cone setae on mesial margin of segment 7. Male pleopod 1 distally widened, scoop-like, lateral margins expanded, obscuring subdistal lobe in lateral view. Etymology . Named for Simon Jarman, Australian Antarctic Division, who collected the type specimens and for his contributions to the phylogenetics of anaspidids. Remarks . Anaspides jarmani sp. nov. and A. clarkei sp. nov. are uniquely share similar male pleopod 1 morphology and the presence of four cone setae on the. They are readily separated by the arrangement of posterior spines of the telson, which, in A. jarmani are slender, closely-set spines rather than no more than stout, well-spaced spines. Anaspides jarmani occurs in southern Tasmania in the Adamson’s Peak-Hartz Mountains region (Hartz Mountains National Park), and, as an epigean species, is considerably more darkly pigmented than the troglobitic A. clarkei .
