A review of the Entoniscinae (Isopoda:Epicaridea:Entoniscidae)

In the Entoniscinae, five new genera are diagnosed, nine new species are described and two species, Paguritherium alatum Reinhard, 1945 and Synalpheion giardi Coutiere, 1908, are redescribed. The first record of an entoniscid from a stenopodid shrimp is reported. Also, the first records of entoniscids from two caridean shrimp families, the Hippolytidea and Palaemonidae, are reported. A new subfamily is proposed for the monotypic Diogenion Codreanu, Codreanu and Pike, 1960. A key to the genera of the Entoniscidae is presented as is a list of species of the Entoniscidae by host species. ftn*Originally published in DAI Vol. 51, no. 11.
