Reassessment of the Groundwater Amphipod Paramoera relicta Synonymizes the Genus Relictomoera with Paramoera (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Pontogeneiidae).
Zoological Science 2018 October
The systematic status of the stygobitic amphipod, Paramoera relicta Uéno, 1971, was revisited based on morphological examination of the paratypes, and molecular phylogenetic analyses using a newly collected specimen from its type locality. The paratypes clearly showed that this species does not possess the "sinusoid" antennal sinus in the head, which was erroneously described in the original description of this species; P. relicta is unquestionably classified within the genus Paramoera Miers, 1875 . Molecular phylogenetic trees obtained with nuclear histone H3 and mitochondrial 16S rRNA demonstrated that P. relicta clearly belongs to the clade consisting of Paramoera species. Since the genus Relictomoera Barnard and Karaman, 1982 was erected according to the "sinusoid" characteristic of its type species P. relicta, this genus is no longer valid, and should be treated as a junior subjective synonym of Paramoera. One of the paratypes of P. relicta is herein designated as a neotype for the species to clarify its taxonomic status and emend the morphological characteristics of this pontogeneiid amphipod.
