Species Griceus buskeyi - Plate 1 of morphological figures

issued from : F.D. & E.L. Markhaseva inProc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 2000, 113 (1). [p.79, Fig.1 (part.: C-E)].
Female (from Kona Is, Hawaii): C, habitus (lateral left side); D, last thoracic segments and urosome ( (dorsal); E, P5. All scale lines 0.01 mm.
Nota: Rostrum bilobe plate. A1 with a large segmental complex proximally.

issued from : F.D. & E.L. Markhaseva inProc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 2000, 113 (1). [p.80, Fig.2 (part.: A, B, C, E)].
Female (from Kona Is, Hawaii): A, genital complex (dorsal); B, idem (lateral left side); C, idem (lateral right side); E, urosome (dorsal and slightly lateral, with attenuate finger-like processes and socket-like depressions darkened). All scale lines 0.01 mm.

issued from : F.D. & E.L. Markhaseva inProc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 2000, 113 (1). [p.81, Fig.3].

Species Griceus buskeyi - Plate 4 of morphological figures

issued from : F.D. & E.L. Markhaseva in Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 2000, 113 (1). [p.82, Fig.4].
Female (from Kona Is, Hawaii): A, left A1 (proximal segmental complex plus following incompletely articulating segment, ventral view, distal is down); B, exopod of right A2; C, left A2 ( (with exopod broken); D, left Md; E, left Mx1; F, left Mx2. All scale lines 0.01 mm.
Nota: Md: coxa elongate with lobe at mid-length and attenuations medially; basis unarmed; exopod 5-segmented with 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 setae; endopod apparently a lobe on the basis medial to the exopod. Mx1: praecoxa, coxa and basis with poorly-developed, unarmed lobes; endopod not distinguished; exopod 1-segmented with 1 medial and 3 terminal setae. Mx2: proximal and distal praecoxal endites poorly-developed, unarmed,no arthropodial membrane separating praecoxa and coxa; proximal coxal endite with 2 setae; endites of basis indistinct with 1 and 2 setae; exopod unsegmented with 7 setae.

Species Griceus buskeyi - Plate 5 of morphological figures

issued from : F.D. & E.L. Markhaseva inProc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 2000, 113 (1). [p.83, Fig.5].
Female (from Kona Is, Hawaii): A, left Mxp; B, P1 (anterior); C, P2 (posterior); D, P3 (posterior); E, P4 (posterior); All scale lines 0.01 mm. Nota: Swimming legs incomplete.

Rem.:

hyperbenthic (bottom: 650 m).
Ferrari & Markhaseva (2000, p.86) place this new species and genus in the Arietellidae, close to Paraugaptilus (small unarmed mandibular endopod and Mx1 without an endopod).
