A new species of spider crab of the genus Libinia from Peru, and
the first known male of Delsolaria enriquei Garth, 1973 (Crustacea, Brachyura,
Majidae), by John S. Garth and Matilde M€mdez G., Bull. Southern California
Acad. Sci., 82(3):125-130, 1983. A new species ofspider crab, genus Libinia, and
the first known male ofanother species, Delsolaria enriquei, from among IMARPE
(Instituto del Mar del Peru) collections from northern Peru are described and
illustrated. The former belongs to an amphi-American genus having north and
south temperate anti-tropical cognates; the latter is a Peruvian endemic. The new
Libinia species is most closely related to L. mexicana Rathbun of the Gulf of
California. Delsolaria, as shown by the male first pleopod of D. enriquei, is allied
with Libidoclaea Milne Edwards and Lucas, an austral American genus of the
subfamily Pisinae.
