Some Small Collections of Alpheid Shrimp from the Indian Ocean, Including Two New Species of the Genus Synalpheus 

Abstract

Some small collections of alpheid shrimp resulting from the participation of the United States research vessels in the International Indian Ocean Expeditions are reported: 53 species in six genera were collected, with many of the collection records extending the known range of the various species within the Indian Ocean. Two new species are described from the deeper sublittoral zone: Synalpheus cretoculatus from off the southern tip of Burma and Synalpheus somalia from the oceanic coast of Somalia near the Gulf of Aden.

Maqaalkan waxaa lagu muujinayaa qaar ka mid ah kaambaha loo yaqaan "alpheidae", waxaa baaristan ka qayb qaatay maraakiib maraykan oo ka mid ahaayeen (The International Indian Ocean Expeditions), waxaana la ururiyey 53 dir oo ah 6 nooc oo kala duwan, in badan oo ka mid ah waxay kordhiyeen aqoonta loo lahaa noocyada laga yiqiin Badweynta Hindiya. Qoraalku wuxuu ka hadlayaa laba dir oo cusub oo laga helay agagaarka koofur: Synalpheus cretoculatus iyo Synalpheus somalia.

In questo articolo sono state riportate alcune piccole collezioni di alpheidae (una specie di gambero) ottenute grazie alla partecipazione di navi di ricerca statunitensi nelle spedizioni internazionali nell'oceano indiano (The International Indian Ocean Expeditions): sono state raccolte 53 specie di 6 diversi generi, molte delle quali ampliano la gamma conosciuta delle varie specie esistenti nell'oceano indiano. Sono state descritte due nuove specie nella zona del litorale sud: Synalpheus cretoculatus e Synalpheus somalia.
