Tube-constructing paratanaoidean tanaidaceans (Crustacea: Peracarida): a brief review

抄録

This study summarizes previous reports of tubes constructed with thread or mucus by paratanaoidean tanaidaceans. A literature survey found 34 genera in 14 extant families to contain species with for which information exists on tubes, whereas five families (Akanthophoreidae, Heterotanoididae, Paranarthrurellidae, Pseudozeuxidae, and Teleotanaidae) lacked any records of tube-use.
