Material examined. Tshudy (1993, p. 361) examined the holotype ( USNM 371511 ) and identified the two incomplete palms of isolated claws as

Ctenocheles cookei lowei .

Remarks. Mertin (1941) synonymized Ischnodactylus with Oncopareia and considered I. cookei to be a species of Oncopareia . On the basis of palm shape and the downflexed fixed finger, Tshudy

(1993, pp. 360‒361) classified the isolated claw material of Ischnodactylus cookei as belonging to the axiidean ghost shrimp genus Ctenocheles .

Hyžný and Dulai (2014) and Hyžný and Klompmaker (2015) also recognized this form as a representative of Ctenocheles .

Range and occurrence. Lower Eocene (Sucar-

noochee beds of the Midway Formation) of Wilcox

County, Alabama; and upper Eocene (Jackson

Formation) of Yazoo City, Mississippi, USA ( Rathbun, 1935).
