Two new species of Pseudosquilla (Crustacea, Stomatopoda) from the Pacific Ocean. American Museum novitates ; no. 2484

Abstract

"Two new species of Pseudosquilla from localities in the Pacific Ocean are differentiated from previously recognized species primarily on the basis of color pattern. Pseudosquilla hieroglyphica, new species closely resembles P. ornata but differs in having an irregular rather than uniform color pattern. Pseudosquilla guttata, new species is morphologically similar to P. oculata, but differs in having the dark spots on the carapace surrounded by lighter spots rather than an entire light ring"--P. [1].
