Family Tisbidae

Family Tisbidae

1. Tisbe japonica Ho, 1982 and T. coulli, T. ianthina, T. longipes and T. variana, all new species by Volkmann, 1979a, to genus codon in KGG 100 (p. 49).
2.Volkmann (1979c) gives a partial revision of Tisbe, with keys to the species dealt with. In this revision she —
(a)describes seven new species — T. trisetosa, elanitica, rampighera, perplexa, gigantea, denticulata and maraensis; all to genus codon in KGG 100 (p. 49).
(b)synonymizes T. wilsoni with T. gracilis and T. lancii with T. holothuriae,
(c)describes T. inflatiseta Volkmann, 1979 for the nomen nudum, Tisbe inflatiseta Fava & Volkman, 1975.
(d)removes T. ompacta, cluthae, elongata and racovitzai to species incertae sedis in the genus,
(e)resurrects Bathyidia for B. remota Farran. This genus has the same codon in KGG 100 (p. 49) as Tisbe.
As a consequence of this revision amend note b) to KGG 100 (p. 50) to read — "Care must be taken with these three genera. Bathyidia can be separated from most species of Tisbe by the form of the P.1 endopod (see Volkmann, 1979c). Scutellidium and Tisbe can be separated on the respective absence or presence of a seta on the A.2 basis".
3.Volkmann (1979b) revises Tisbella. As a consequence —
(a)delete Idyellopsis and Zosime from KGG 1 (p. 48),
(b)delete Tisbella timsae and T. pulchella from KGG 200 (p. 51),
(c)describes T. inflatiseta Volkmann, 1979 for the nomen nudum, Tisbe inflatiseta Fava & Volkmann, 1975.
(d)insert KGG as follows —

n = number of segments.
2.A.2 Exp.
n = number of segments.
3.P.2-P.4 Exp.3
n:n:n = number of setae and/or spines on P.2, P.3 and P.4 respectively.
4.P.2-P.4 Enp.3

4.As a consequence of Kunz's (1981) revision of the Paramesochridae the following must be deleted from Tisbidae KGG 1 (p.48) —
(a)codons for the two species of Tisbisoma,
(b)codon for Idyanthopsis psammophila,
