Gammarus anodon Stock, Mirzajani, Vonk, Naderi & Kiabi, 1998: 184 –189, Figs. 6–9.

Locus typicus. Hasheelan wetland, Kermanshah Province, (34º28'N, 47º00'E).

Material examined. Paratypes from locus typicus, (ZMA Crust. Amph. 201928).

Distribution. Endemic species, restricted to the type locality in Kermanshah province, north-west Zagros (Fig. 1).

Ecological notes. No information available.

Taxonomic remarks. The special structure of urosomites 1 and 2, which are strongly elevated and compressed on mid-dorsal (Stock et al., 1998, Fig. 6b), makes it very easy to distinguish this species among other Iranian Gammarids. In addition, setae on posterior margin of carpus and merus in pereopod 3 (ibid., Figs. 8a,c) are much shorter than in other species.
