The evolution of a key character, or how to evolve a slipper lobster

Abstract: A new fossil lobster from the Cretaceous of Lebanon, Charbelicaris maronites gen. et sp. nov., is presented here, while the former species 'Cancrinos' libanensis is re-described as Paracancrinos libanensis comb. nov. P. libanensis is shown to be closer related to the contemporary slipper lobsters than to Cancrinos claviger (lithographic limestones, Jurassic, southern Germany). A finely-graded evolutionary scenario for the slipper-lobster morphotype is reconstructed based on these fossil species and extant form… Show more

“…By far, the most abundant animals found in the Hadjoula and Hakel biota are the fishes (in the wide sense) with a prolific and varied assemblage of chondrichthyans and osteichthyans, both found in large numbers on bedding planes (Gayet et al, 2003). Euarthropods are also common, represented by decapod crustaceans (Charbonnier et al, 2017;Garassino, 1994, 2001Glaessner, 1945Haug et al, 2016;Roger, 1946), stomatopods (Ahyong et al, 2007), isopods (unpublished) and thylacocephalans (this work). The euarthropods are most frequently preserved as compressions on the surface of sublithographic limestone.…”

“…Slipper lobsters (Scyllaridae) are easy to recognize decapod crustaceans: contrary to almost all other crustaceans, their antennae do not have a long flagellum, but a rather short flagellum formed of a few podomeres (Holthuis 1991;Lavalli & Spanier 2012;Haug et al 2016).…”
