Bermudalana aruboides, a new genus and species of troglobitic Isopoda (Cirolanidae) from marine caves on Bermuda
Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington, 96(2):291-300.
Bermudalana aruboides, a blind unpigmented cirolanid isopod representing
a new genus, is described from inland marine caves on Bermuda. It is
the first hypogean cirolanid known from Bermuda. The close resemblance between
Bermudalana and Arubolana, known from brackish groundwater on Aruba,
Netherlands Antilles, suggests that both were derived from a common marine
ancestor.
