FIGURE 11 in Toward a unified taxonomy of Niphargus (Crustacea: Amphipoda): a review of morphological variability

FIGURE 11. Coxae, bases and dactyls of pereopods V and VII. Compare the sizes of anterior-posterior lobe of coxa V and the shape of coxal posterior margin (arrows D, E). Coxa VII differs with respect to position of the ventral-most point (arrows G, H). Note the differences in base width, presence/absence of posterior/anterior distal lobe, presence of proximo-posterior lobe (arrow I) and types of setae along posterior margins (A–C, F–I). Dactyls differ in shapes (left column) and setal patterns (right column). A, F: N. pectinicauda (Sket 1971); B, G: N. dalmatinus (original drawing); C, I: N. balcanicus (S. Karaman 1932); D, Q: N. jovanovici (S. Karaman 1943a); E: N. dabarensis (Fišer et al. 2006b); H, L: N. multipennatus (Sket 1972); J: N. rostratus (Sket 1971); K: N. orcinus (S. Karaman 1950); M: N. macedonicus (S. Karaman 1943a); N: N. illidzensis (S. Karaman 1932); O: N. delamarei (Ruffo 1954); P: N. grandii (Sket 1972).
