Abstract

GONZALEZ, Exequiel R  and  WATLING, Les. A new species of Hyalella from the Andes in Perú (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Hyalellidae). Rev. biol. trop [online]. 2002, vol.50, n.2, pp.649-658. ISSN 0034-7744.

Hyalella pauperocavae n. sp. from Huancayo, Perú, is described. Five other epigean freshwater amphipods have been described from Peru (excluding Lake Titicaca), but the lack of type material and poor descriptions do not allow the assignment of the species described here to any of the names known for the area

Keywords : Freshwater; Amphipoda; Hyalellidae; epigean; Perú.
