Declarations
:
: The authors declare no competing interests.
: No approval of research ethics committees was required to accomplish the goals of this study because experimental work was conducted with unregulated invertebrate species.
: All necessary permits for sampling and observational field studies have been obtained by the authors from the competent authorities and are mentioned in the “InternalRef removed”, if applicable.
: All faunistic data generated or analysed during this study are included in this published article, whereas COI sequences are deposited in GenBank (see electronic supplementary Table InternalRef removed). The physical specimens that were not used for taxonomic descriptions are located either at the DZMB in Wilhelmshaven (contact: Pedro Martinez Arbizu) or the Marine Biology Research Group of Ghent University (contact: Ellen Pape). Type material of the described species is either stored at the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt (SMF), or the Crustacean Collection of the Museum of Nature (Leibniz Institute for the Analysis of Biodiversity Change, LIB) (formerly Center of Natural History, CeNak) in Hamburg.
