Abstract

Huntemannia doheoni sp. nov. is described from a muddy sand flat off the coast of the Yellow Sea, Korea. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of characters that include: a strong, hook-like outer process on the P1 coxa; incompletely fused exopod segments and reduced setal formulae of the P2-P4 in the female; and modified outermost spine on the distal segment of P3-P4 in the male. In addition, a key to the species of Huntemannia is provided.
