New fossil amphipod, Palaeogammarus polonicus sp. nov. from the Baltic amber
Abstract
A new species of the amphipod crustacean, Palaeogammarus polonicus sp. nov., is established upon one specimen embedded in a piece of Eocene Baltic amber. The new species is compared with four formerly described amphipods from Baltic amber, all belonging to the genus Palaeogammarus ZADDACH, 1864 (Crangonyctidae).
