对澳大利亚浅海礁生境的调查发现了极其丰富的tanaid（甲壳纲：Tanaidae: Tanaidae）动物群。目前在澳大利亚大陆和塔斯马尼亚岛共有21个物种，约占全球已知物种的三分之一。本研究共鉴定出15种，其中包括1个新属Austrotanais g. sp， 1个新种Austrotanais rileyi n. sp、Sinelobus barretti g. sp、Zeuxoides lasti n. sp、Zeuxoides lauriebourqueae n. sp、Zeuxoides mawbeyi n. sp、zeuxorussi n. sp、zeuxobelli n. sp、zeuxokirkmani n. sp、Zeuxo odohertyae n. sp、Zeuxo mooneyi n. sp、Zeuxo shepherdi n. sp和pancolides moverleyi n. sp。
Investigation of shallow reef habitats around Australia revealed an extremely rich tanaid (Crustacea: Tanaidacea: Tanaidae) fauna. A total of 21 species in the family are now recognised from the Australian continent and Tasmania— about one-third of tanaids known worldwide. In this study, 15 species are diagnosed, including a new genus, Austrotanais g. sp., and twelve new species, Austrotanais rileyi n. sp., Sinelobus barretti g. sp., Zeuxoides lasti n. sp., Zeuxoides lauriebourqueae n. sp., Zeuxoides mawbeyi n. sp., Zeuxo russi n. sp., Zeuxo belli n. sp., Zeuxo kirkmani n. sp., Zeuxo odohertyae n. sp., Zeuxo mooneyi n. sp., Zeuxo shepherdi n. sp. and Pancoloides moverleyi n. sp. Keys are provided to local genera and species.
