A review of the families and genera of the hyperiidean amphipod superfamily Phronimoidea Bowman & Gruner, 1973 (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Hyperiidea) Author Zeidler, Wolfgang text Zootaxa 2004 2004-07-14 567 1 66 journal article 4802 10.11646/zootaxa.567.1.1 173cf168-6357-4b76-955f-7b523590ff1d 1175­5334 5259734 41C7D868-7BD9-46F4-94F1-EBEA427E2836 Genus Hyperioides Chevreux, 1900 Remarks Bowman (1973) recognised two species of this relatively distinctive genus. Although both can be very abundant very little is known of their biology. Thurston (1976) provides some information on the vertical distribution and diurnal migration of H. longipes , and identified two size classes within a (presumed) single population. Shulenberger (1979) also provides some biological information for both species. Hyperioides longipes Chevreux, 1900 has been observed in association with the siphonophore Lensia conoidea ( Laval 1980 ) , but the host of the widespread, often abundant, H. sibaginis ( Stebbing, 1888 ) is not known. It is suspected that it will prove to be a siphonophore that is also widespread and relatively common (Bowman & McGuinness 1982). Distributional information for species is provided by Bowman (1973), Bowman and McGuinness (1982), Vinogradov et al . (1982) and Zeidler (1998). Species : Hyperioides sibaginis ( Stebbing 1888 ) ; H. longipes Chevreux, 1900 .
