ARTIFICIAL KEY TO THE MYSIDACEA OF THE CANADIAN ATLANTIC CONTINENTAL SHELF

Abstract

A key is given for the identification of 16 species and one variety of Mysidacea recorded up to date in waters of the Canadian Atlantic continental shelf. Two species not yet recorded but likely to occur in these waters are also included. The key is to be used with Tattersall's Review of the Mysidacea of the U.S. National Museum (1951). Diagnostic characters of four species are illustrated.
