Telson (Fig. 6A) twice as long as wide, with a long subcentral seta on each side, cleft extending to 12% of length, with a small lobe at the base of the cleft.</p> <p>Remarks. Currently, with the new species described in this paper, the genus Pardaliscoides comprises six deep-sea species, inhabiting from 218 m to 10000 m depth. Unfortunately, the description of some of these species is incomplete owing to e.g. the poor condition of the holotype (P. ecosur), the incomplete description made (P. fictotelson), or the an incomplete set of illustrations provided (P. longicaudatus, P. tenellus, and P. stebbingi). Despite the incomplete data, we have been able to determine two groups of species based on the telson: type 1- deeply cleft with lobes tapering distally (P. ecosur, P. stebbingi, and P. tenellus); type 2-shallow cleft telson with quadrangular notch (P. fictotelson and P. whiteae sp. nov.).</p> <p>Pardaliscoides whiteae sp. nov. differs from the five other Pardaliscoides species in having antenna 1 with a 10-articulate accessory flagellum; maxilliped palp very long; pereopods 5–7 elongate, slender; telson with a short U–shaped cleft and pointed lobes; uropods 1–2 outer ramus curved, peduncle flat, longer than rami; uropod 3 rami flat, fleshy-lined, with marginal distal short robust setae. The new species is morphologically closest to P. fictotelson (California, Eastern Pacific Ocean) based on gnathopods 1–2 with a wide tuft of setae on merus posterior margin, similar telson (type 2), uropod 1 curved outer ramus, and foliaceus rami on uropod 3. However, both Pardaliscoides species can be easily differentiated by the accessory flagellum articles, the peduncle of uropod 1 length, the setae on telson, and the more widely expanded basis of pereopod 7. Major morphological differences between species of Pardaliscoides are shown in the identification key.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2A0787FEFFC0FF90FF52F97F7CF8B437	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
