A key is provided for the identification of these 17 species.

A new species

– We present an updated classification for the entire Crustacea Decapoda, listing all known families and genera organized by higher taxonomic groups and including estimates of the number of species in every genus. All taxonomic names are also linked to the verified literature in which they were described, the first compilation of its kind for the Decapoda. To arrive at this compilation, we began with the classification scheme provided by Martin & Davis (2001) for extant families, updated the higher classification and included the fossil taxa. The resultant framework was then populated with the currently valid genera and an estimate of species numbers within each genus. Our resulting classification, spanning both extant (living) and fossil taxa, is the first comprehensive estimate of taxonomic diversity within the entire Decapoda. The classification consists of 233 families of decapods containing 2,725 genera and an estimated 17,635 species (including both extant and fossil species). Of the families in our classification, 53 are exclusively fossil, 109 contain both fossil and extant species, and 71 are extant only. The current estimate for extant species is 14,756, whereas 2,979 species are known exclusively as fossils.

Systematic List of Fossil Decapod Crustacean Species

This volume is dedicated to the fossil and extant glypheoid lobsters (Eucrustacea, Decapoda, Glypheoidea) included in the families Glypheidae Zittel, 1885 and Litogastridae Karasawa, Schweitzer & Feldmann, 2013. The knowledge of these groups has increased enormously during recent years. Many new species have been added and progress in phylogenalc analyses has changed our view of the generic and familial classifications. The main purpose of this volume is to provide a new synthesis taking into account these additions and progress to date. Thus, a general review of the fossil and extant glypheid and litogastrid lobsters is here presented. The taxonomic treatment includes a detailed description of the type species and of all species herein included in each genus. All the diagnoses and descriptions are reported using standard criteria and common descriptive terminology. As much as was possible, we have endeavoured to figure all the species recorded in the literature with photographs and reproductions of the historical illustrations. Thus about 990 specimens have been studied and are illustrated in 583 figures. Amongst the Glypheidae, the systematic validity of the genera Glyphea Meyer, 1835, Paraglyphea Beurlen, 1928, Glypheopsis Beurlen, 1928, Trachysoma Bell, 1858, Heteroglyphaea Colosi, 1921, Neoglyphea Forest & de Saint Laurent, 1975 and Lauren taeglyphea Forest, 2006 is confirmed or re-established based upon morphological characters. Three new genera are erected to accommodate the unique characters of three groups of glypheid lobsters: Angarestia n. gen., Gigacerina n. gen. and Rectaglyphea n. gen. All the glypheid genera together represent 83 valid names of fossil and Recent species. Twelve species are included with doubt in different glypheid genera because of the lack of diagnostic characters. Eight new species are described: Glyphea oolitica n. sp., Paraglyphea locardi n. sp., Paraglyphea mistelgauensis n. sp., Glypheopsis trouvillensis n. sp., Glypheopsis voultensis n. sp., Angarestia viallei n. sp., Angarestia mugudaensis n. sp. and Rectaglyphea howardae n. sp. Amongst the Litogastridae, the systematic validity of the genera Litogaster Meyer, 1847 and Pseudoglyphea Oppel, 1861 is also confirmed based upon morphological characters. A new genus is erected to accommodate the unique characters of a group of litogastrid lobsters: Audogaster n. gen. These genera together represent 26 valid names of fossil species. Seven species are included with doubt in different litogastrid genera because of the lack of true diagnostic characters. One new species is described: Audogaster assmanni n. sp. Our review leads us to assign 12 species originally placed within the glypheid lobsters to the Mecochiridae Van Straelen, 1925, Erymidae Van Straelen, 1925, Paguridae Latreille, 1802 and Callianassidae Dana, 1852, respectively.

A worldwide review of fossil and extant glypheid and litogastrid lobsters (Crustacea, Decapoda, Glypheoidea)

A robust decapod fauna from middle Oligocene rocks near Bariloche. Argentina, has yielded several new forms. New genera include Baricarciniis and new species include CaUianopsis aiistralis. Protcrocarciniis corsoUni. Trichopeltarion levis, Baricarcinits mariae, and Asthenogimthus miciospinus. Munida casadioi (Schweitzer and Feldmann, 2000a) is also reported. This is the first notice of CaUianopsis de Saint Laurent, 1973, in the southern hemisphere. The species of Trichopeltarion and Asthenoi'nathiis described herein are the oldest known representatives of their respective genera, and Astlienognatliiis is one of the oldest known genera within the Pinnotheridae de Haan, 1833. The fauna of the Foyel Fonnation is significantly different from that of the slightly younger Centinela Formation, exposed approximately 500 km to the south, suggesting that paleoecological conditions were conducive to specialization in the decapod fauna of southern South America.

Phylogeny of fossil and extant glypheid and litogastrid lobsters (Crustacea, Decapoda) as revealed by morphological characters.

We report an unusual and rich decapod crustacean assemblage from the early Pliocene (Zanclean), recently collected during the excavations of the “La Serra” quarry, located in La Serra, near San Miniato, Pisa (Toscana, central Italy). The studied specimens have been assigned, as follows: Axius sp., Callianassa chalmasii Brocchi, 1883 , and Calliaxina cf. C. punica ( de Saint Laurent and Manning, 1982 ) (infraorder Axiidea de Saint Laurent, 1979); Gebiacantha tuscia Garassino, Pasini, De Angeli and Charbonnier sp. nov. (infraorder Gebiidea de Saint Laurent, 1979); Pagurus alatus Fabricius, 1775 , and Pagurus sp. (infraorder Anomura MacLeay, 1838); Dromia neogenica Muller, 1978 , Dromia sp., Medorippe cf. M. ampla Garassino, De Angeli, Gallo and Pasini, 2004, Ilia nucleus ( Linnaeus, 1758 ), Ristoria pliocaenica (Ristori, 1891), Pisa armata ( Latreille, 1803 ), Macropodia sp., Maja squinado (Herbst, 1788), Derilambrus angulifrons ( Latreille, 1825 ), Atelecyclus undecimdentatus (Herbst, 1783), Liocarcinus sp., Thalamita italica Garassino, Pasini, De Angeli and Charbonnier sp. nov., Pilumnus cf. P. hirtellus (Linnaeus, 1761), Eriphia cocchii Ristori, 1886 , Goneplax rhomboides ( Linnaeus, 1758 ), Goneplax sacci Crema, 1895 , (infraorder Brachyura Linnaeus, 1758 ). Moreover, two specimens have been assigned to callianassideans sensu lato and 13 specimens to indeterminate axiideans. Calliaxina Ngoc-Ho, 2003 , Gebiacantha Ngoc-Ho, 1989 , Ristoria Garassino, Pasini, De Angeli and Charbonnier gen. nov., and Macropodia Leach, 1814, are reported for the first time in the fossil record and the extant Pagurus alatus, Ilia nucleus, Pisa armata, Derilambrus angulifrons, and Pilumnus cf. P. hirtellus, are reported in the fossil record from the Pliocene. Everywhere “La Serra” quarry bio-community is very important, representing one of the richest and most diversified crustacean faunas from the Pliocene reported to date in the Mediterranean basin and worldwide, increasing notably the knowledge on the decapod populations and distribution during the early Pliocene. This community is indicative of a palaeoenvironment of shallow sublittoral water, with sandy-muddy and alternate hard shell bottom, partially covered or in proximity of seagrass, similar to the extant Mediterranean Posidonia beds, mainly inhabited by fossorial and benthonic decapods.
