CALLIANIDEA VANDOVERAE SPECIES NOVA (DECAPODA, THALASSINIDEA, CALLIANIDEIDAE) FROM OFF THE CENTRAL EASTERN FLORIDA COAST, U.S.A. BY ROBERT H. GORE 288-2 Winner Circle, Naples, Florida 33942, U.S.A.

Cette nouvelle espèce est proche de Callianidea leura des eaux côtières centrales du Queensland, en Australie. Quelques traits de la morphologie des antennules, de la carapace, des péréiopodes et du telson sont comparés à ceux de C. leura et d'autres Callianidea. INTRODUCTION The genus Callianidea is a small taxon the members of which superficially resemble callianassid or "ghost shrimp". Fewer than 10 species are assigned to the genus, but these are nonetheless widely distributed in tropical or warm temperate waters of the world ocean, with the majority known from the Indo-, West, or Central Pacific regions (De Man, 1928; Melin, 1939; Edmondson, 1944; Poore & Griffin, 1979).
