摘要:

All known Queensland species of the isopod family Sphaeromatidae, subfamily Sphaeromatinae (= hemibranchs), are discussed. The following new taxa are erected:Calcipila cornuta,gen. nov., sp. nov.;Cymodoce tribullis,sp. nov.;Cymodoce bipapilla,sp. nov.;Paracilicaea aspera,sp. nov.;Cilicaeopsis glebosa,sp. nov.;Cilicaeopsis furculata,sp. nov.;Cilicaea calcarifera,sp. nov.;Zuzara curtispina,sp. nov.;Zuzara digitata,sp. nov.; andClianella brucei,sp. nov.Exosphaeroma intermediumBaker is transferred to the genusSphaeromaLatreille. The genusDynoidesBarnard is reviewed and its current synonymy is contested. With several new records, this brings the total number of sphaeromatid species known from Queensland to 49, 24 of which are in the subfamily Sphaeromatinae. A checklist of all sphaeromatid species occurring in Queensland waters is given.From the rest of Australia:Cymodoce tuberculataHaswell is given the replacement nameCymodoce haswelli,nom. nov.;Cymodoce granulataMiers is made a junior synonym ofCerceis trispinosa(Haswell) (subfamily Dynameninae);Zuzara diademaLeach,Z. dicantha(Milne Edwards) andZ. IntegraHaswell are made junior synonyms ofZ. semipunctataLeach;Cilicaeopsis dakiniTattersall is tentatively transferred to the genusParacilicaeaStebbing.The genera discussed are reviewed world‐wide and among the non‐Australian species:Exosphaeroma papillaeBayliff is transferred to the genusSphaeroma; Sphaeroma irakiensisAhmed is made a junior synonym ofSphaeroma annandalei annandaleiStebbing;Cymodoce richardsoniaeNobili is shown to be distinct fromCymodoce truncataLeach;Cymodoce eupygaNobili is transferred to the genusParacilicaea; Dynoides amblysinusPillai,Dynoides castroiLoyola e Silva andExosphaeroma globicaudum(Dana) are transferred to the genusClianellaBoone;Dynoides brasiliensis(Loyola e Silva; andSphaeroma savignnMilne EdwardssensuDana, 1853 are declared to be conspecific withClianella castroi.The nameSorrentosphaeraVerhoeff is made a junior synonym ofDynameneLeach (subfamily Dynameni
