“…Later, studies by local and foreign scientists broadened the knowledge about regional mysid species richness with the description of new species from Brazilian (Bȃcescu, 1968a(Bȃcescu, , b, c, 1969(Bȃcescu, , 1984(Bȃcescu, , 1986Silva, 1970aSilva, , b, 1971aSilva, , b, 1972Silva, , 1974Silva, , 1979aReis & Silva, 1987; and Argentine waters (Hoffmeyer, 1993;Carcedo et al, 2013). To date, a limited amount of investigations concerning their biology (Loureiro Fernandes & Gama, 1996;Rörig et al, 1997;Gama & Zamboni, 1999;Gama et al, 2002Gama et al, , 2006Gama et al, , 2011, distribution and/or population structure Almeida Prado, 1973González, 1974;Silva, 1979b;Hoffmeyer, 1990;Tavares & Bond-Buckup, 1990; Tararam et al, 1996;Bond-Buckup & Tavares, 1998;Fries, 1999;Calliari et al, 2001Calliari et al, , 2007Schiariti et al, 2004Schiariti et al, , 2006Viñas et al, 2005;Cardelli et al, 2006;Borzone et al, 2007;Gama et al, 2007;Calil & Borzone, 2008;Gama, 2008) have been completed in the south-west Atlantic. In the late 1990s, Murano (1999) performed the most comprehensive review available to date of the mysidacean fauna (orders Mysida and Lophogastrida) of the South Atlantic Ocean, considering marine coastal and deep waters, including geographical and vertical distribution, detailed descriptions and illust...…”
