Molecular
and morphological methods are used to describe the rhizocephalan Briarosaccus hoegi sp. nov. from
Russian waters of the Sea of Japan, parasitizing the stone crab Hapalogaster dentata (De Haan,
1849). Briarosaccus hoegi sp.
nov. has minor differences by gross morphology from closely related
species, B. tenellus,
parasitizing H. mertensii in
British Columbia and Alaska. Briarosaccus
hoegi sp. nov. and B. tenellus
are identified as distinct species by genetic markers. These two
species have different hosts and different areas of distribution.
Moreover, nauplii of Briarossacus
hoegi sp. nov. have naupliar eyes probably lacking in B. tenellus larvae. The
presence/absence of larval eyes may be a clear character separating the
two species. The prevalence of Briaroaccus
hoegi sp. nov. on the H.
dentata in Peter the Great Bay is about of 6%.
