Distinguishing characters of Niphargus gebhardti Schellenberg, 1934 and Niphargus molnari Mehely, 1927 (Crustacea: Amphipoda): a clarification
Two endemic Niphargus species, N. gebhardti Schellenberg, 1934 and N. molnari Méhely, 1927 are known from two caves of the Mecsek Mts. (SW Hungary). The species are morphologically close to each other and differ only in few characters. Although, the original descriptions contain only scattered infor...

description | Two endemic Niphargus species, N. gebhardti Schellenberg, 1934 and N. molnari Méhely, 1927 are known from two caves of the Mecsek Mts. (SW Hungary). The species are morphologically close to each other and differ only in few characters. Although, the original descriptions contain only scattered information and few drawings, more characters can be found in the additional literature. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the available distinguishing morphological characters and to provide sufficient drawings to ease the identification of N. gebhardti and N. molnari. |
