sp. 2
Fig 339
Distribution
RV
Polarstern
, PS77, ANT-XXVII/3, stn 211 (there were several sub-stations for stn 211), Shag Rocks. The species is known from a photograph taken by H. Robert and Ch. Havermans. The specimen was unavailable for study.
Remark
This species looks similar to
A. pulchra
and
A. schellenbergi
but displays some differences. Pereionites 5 and 6 have each a conspicuous posterodorsal tooth, which is absent in
A. pulchra
and
A. schellenbergi
. The pereiopods are striped, which is not the case or not so pronounced in
A. pulchra
.
