Abstract:
The genus Parapenaeopsis Alcock, 1901 auctorum (i.e., sensu lato) is herein distinguished to comprise a total of eight genera, seven of which are new, the eighth being the original genus Parapenaeopsis in a new sense, i.e., sensu stricto. The new classification is based predominantly on the various structures of the male petasma, with in addition the structures of the male 2nd pleopods as exhibited by the species comprised in the former, large genus. Brief diagnoses of all genera are given and a key to these genera is provided.French
