Abstract:

"The new genus Albunione is described, with Ione indecora Markham, 1988, as the type species. It includes A. indecora, which infests the albuneid anomuran Albunea paretii Guérin-Méneville in the Caribbean, and the new species A. australiana, which infests Albunea microps Miers off the coast of Queensland, Australia. These species of Albunea are the only members of the anomuran superfamily Hippoidea known to bear bopyrid parasites"--P. [1].
