Lysmata ankeri Rhyne and Lin, 2006
Previous records. Abele and Kim, 1989: 19 [Gatun Locks, as Lysmata . wurdemanni (Gibbes, 1850) ]; Rhyne and Lin, 2006: 179 [Caribbean Panama].
Remarks. Rhyne and Lin (2006) referred part of the material of L. wurdemanni in Abele and Kim (1989) to L. ankeri , however, without any further comments. The material in Abele and Kim (1989) included two specimens (1 male and 1 ovigerous female) collected from the lower western chamber of Gatun Locks. As neither specimen was discussed by Rhyne and Lin (2006), it is unclear which of them is L. ankeri . Based on the species’ wide occurrence in the tropical and subtropical western Atlantic, from southern Florida to São Paulo, Brazil ( Rhyne and Lin, 2006), its occurrence in Panama is highly likely but does require confirmation.
