Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The Anthuridea Monod, 1922 are a suborder of Isopoda characterized by an elongate cylindrical body form, without dorsal coxal plates, and with a uropodal exopod attached to the peduncle proximally and dorsally. Over 500 species are described and these are assigned to 57 genera after synonymy of a further 30 genera. The taxonomic history of the group since 1814 is briefly reviewed. A cladistic analysis supports recognition of six families of Anthuridea, two new: Anthuridae Leach, 1814 (24 genera); Antheluridae Poore & Lew Ton, 1988 (3 genera); Expanathuridae fam. nov. (7 genera); Hyssuridae Wägele, 1981 (6 genera); Leptanthuridae fam. nov. (11 genera); and Paranthuridae Menzies & Glynn, 1968 (6 genera). The significant taxonomic changes proposed here are: erection of the new family Expanathuridae for seven genera previously included in Hyssuridae, Paranthuridae and Anthuridae; erection of the new family Leptanthuridae for 11 genera previously included in Paranthuridae; synonymy of Indonesanthura Negoescu, 1997 with Caenanthura Kensley, 1978; synonymy of Filanthura Wägele, 1981 with Indanthura Pillai & Eapen, 1966; synonymy of Centranthura Wägele, 1981 and Monodanthura Wägele & Platvoet, 1982 with Notanthura Monod, 1927; synonymy of Agulanthura Kensley, 1975 with Quantanthura Menzies & George, 1972; synonymy of Stellanthura Wägele, 1979, Chalixanthura Kensley, 1984 and Licranthura Kensley & Schotte, 1987 with Heptanthura Kensley, 1978; and synonymy of Neoanthura Menzies, 1956 with Leptanthura Sars, 1897. All families and genera are diagnosed using characters from a DELTA database and their relationships discussed. I offer dichotomous keys for their identification. All valid species are listed in an appendix. Biogeography at the family and genus level is briefly discussed. |
