A new species, Strongylacron glabrum sp. n. is described from intertidal mudflats in the Korean peninsula. The new species is assigned to the monospecific genus Strongylacron Gee & Huys, 1996 in accordance with the generic morphological features of the rostrum, antennary exopod, and thoracic legs. However, Strongylacron glabrum sp. n. is clearly distinguished from the type species, Strongylacron buchholtzi (Boeck, 1873), by the naked anterior margin of rostrum, the elongate exopod and endopodal lobe of female P5 approximately 3.5 and 2.7 times as long as width, respectively, and the presence of 8-10 rod-like projections on prosomites. The genus Strongylacron is first recorded from Korean waters by the present study.
一种新物种,光滑强颚水虱(Strongylacron glabrum sp. n.),是在朝鲜半岛的潮间带泥滩中被描述的。根据吻部、触角外肢和胸足的类属形态特征,该新物种被归入单物种属强颚水虱属(Strongylacron Gee & Huys,1996)。然而,光滑强颚水虱(Strongylacron glabrum sp. n.)与模式种布氏强颚水虱(Strongylacron buchholtzi (Boeck, 1873))明显不同,其吻部前缘无覆盖物,雌性第五胸足的外肢和内肢叶细长,分别约为宽度的3.5倍和2.7倍,并且在躯干部有8 - 10个棒状突起。本研究首次在韩国水域记录到强颚水虱属。
