Three New Species of Bathyleberis (Ostracoda, Myodocopina) From Southern California, U.S.a

Three New Species of Bathyleberis (Ostracoda, Myodocopina) From Southern California, U.S.a THREE NEW SPECIES OF BATHYLEBERIS (OSTRACODA, MYODOCOPINA) FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, U.S.A. 1) BY JAMES H. BAKER Southwest Research Institute, 3600 Yoakum Boulevard, Houston, Texas 77006, U.S.A. INTRODUCTION From 1956 to 1960, the Allan Hancock Foundation of the University of Southern California undertook an oceanographic survey of the area from Point Conception to the Mexican border and extending seaward to the 100 m contour. The area of this investigation is known as the mainland shelf portion of the continental shelf off southern California. Of 1,498 stations occupied, 455 con- tained a total of 22 cypridinacean species (Baker, in preparation). Of these 22 species three were new species of Bathyleberi.r. The genus has only been found between 41 °S and 61 °S in the South Atlantic and South Pacific Oceans and in the vicinity of New Zealand (Kornicker, 1975 ) . This is the first reported occurrence of the genus in the northern hemisphere.
