Etymology.
Named after the second and last
authors'
second daughter who is very interested in field work and helped to observe and document this species while visiting the lake in 2019.
Distribution.
Caridina marlenae
sp. nov. is endemic to Lake Poso. Specimens were found only at one locality in a bay south of the town of Tentena at the east shore of the lake.
Ecology.
Caridina marlenae
sp. nov. is found under rocks in deep water (more than 5 m).
Remarks.
With its long rostrum, approximately anterior 0.4 unarmed,
C. marlenae
sp. nov. is similar to
C. sarasinorum
,
C. schenkeli
and
C. longidigita
, all endemic to Lake Poso. In the field, body colouration alone is sufficient to differ
C. marlenae
sp. nov. from
C. sarasinorum
or
C. schenkeli
but it might be confused with reddish specimens of
C. longidigita
.
Caridina marlenae
sp. nov. is showing large bright white dots on reddish colouration of the entire body. In
C. sarasinorum
, the body is coloured dark brown with faint light transversal bands on first, third, fifth and sixth abdominal segments (W. Klotz, pers. observation on the comparative material listed above). In
C. schenkeli
the colouration of the body is mostly transparent with some brownish or whitish blotches.
In preserved condition,
C. marlenae
sp. nov. can be distinguished from
C. sarasinorum
by the more reduced epipods (slightly reduced on the third maxilliped, absent from all pereiopods vs. well developed (with distal hooks) on the third maxilliped and first pereiopod in
C. sarasinorum
and the slender chelipeds and pereiopods (in detail: chela of first pereiopod 3.00-3.83 times as long as wide vs. 1.74-2.1 times in
C. sarasinorum
, 1.00-1.05 times as long as carpus vs. 1.35-1.48 times in
C. sarasinorum
, dactylus 1.88-2.50 times as long as palm vs. 0.83-1.05 times as long in
C. sarasinorum
, carpus 3.85-4.77 times as long as wide vs. 1.75-2.22 times in
C. sarasinorum
, merus 3.80-4.25 times as long as wide vs. 1.78-2.63 times in
C. sarasinorum
. Chela of second pereiopod 3.69-4.38 times as long as wide vs. 2.19-2.64 times in
C. sarasinorum
, dactylus 1.80-2.25 times as long as palm vs. 1.05-1.33 times as long in
C. sarasinorum
, carpus 6.78-9.80 times as long as wide vs. 4.56-5.05 times in
C. sarasinorum
, merus 5.33-6.50 times as long as wide vs. 3.60-4.29 times in
C. sarasinorum
. Dactylus of third pereiopod 4.40-5.33 times as long as wide vs. 4.0-4.20 in
C. sarasinorum
, propodus 13.67-16.25 times as long as wide vs. 10.00-11.11 in
C. sarasinorum
, 3.56-4.06 times as long as dactylus vs. 2.86-3.13 times as long as dactylus in
C. sarasinorum
. Propodus of fifth pereiopod 13.43-16.00 times as long as wide vs. 10.00-12.00 in
C. sarasinorum
).
Caridina marlenae
sp. nov. can be distinguished from
C. schenkeli
by the more reduced epipods (slightly reduced on the third maxilliped, absent from all pereiopods vs. well developed (with distal hooks) on the third maxilliped and first and second pereiopod in
C. schenkeli
and the slender chelipeds and armature of the dactyli of pereiopods (in detail: chela of first pereiopod 3.00-3.83 times as long as wide vs. 1.90-3.2 times in
C. schenkeli
, dactylus 1.88-2.50 times as long as palm vs. 1.0-1.4 times as long in
C. schenkeli
. Carpus of first cheliped 3.85-4.77 times as long as wide vs. 2.1-3.2 times as long as wide in
C. schenkeli
. Dactylus of second pereiopod 1.80-2.25 times as long as palm vs. 1.2-1.4 times as long in
C. schenkeli
, carpus 6.78-9.80 times as long as wide vs. 4.5-6.5 times in
C. schenkeli
. Dactylus of third pereiopod with four or five spiniform setae on flexor margin vs. with 6-8 spiniform setae in
C. schenkeli
. Dactylus of fifth pereiopod with 24-31 serrate setae on flexor margin vs. with 57-64 in
C. schenkeli
.
Caridina marlenae
sp. nov. can also be distinguished from
C. longidigita
by the type of chelae built for scraping vs. for filter-feeding in
C. longidigita
(brushes of setae short on tips of fingers of chelipeds vs. setae long, chela of first cheliped 3.00-3.83 times as long as wide vs. 4.6-6.5 times as long as wide in
C. longidigita
, dactylus 1.88-2.50 times as long as palm vs. 3.6-4.6 times as long in
C. longidigita
, carpus 3.85-4.77 times as long as wide vs. 4.8-8.1 times in
C. longidigita
; chela of second pereiopod 3.69-4.38 times as long as wide vs. 4.8-6.4 times in
C. longidigita
, dactylus 1.80-2.25 times as long as palm vs. 3.4-3.9 times as long in
C. longidigita
).
