Limnadia badia ( Wolf, 1911) View in CoL

Eulimnadia badia Wolf, 1911: 270–275 View in CoL , figs. 14–24; Dakin, 1914: 295 (list), 301 (text).

Limnadia badia View in CoL .– Daday, 1925: 149 (key), 151–155, fig. 115; Brtek, 1997: 56 (list).

Type material. Types are present in the Zoologisches Institut und Zoologisches Museum Hamburg. We examined the paratypes (4 males, 8♀♀, 1 juvenile; ZMH, K-19624). The specimens possess no spine on the lower distal angle of the telson. This species therefore belongs to the genus Limnadia . A characteristic feature of this species is the very pronounced and elongated process close to the apical club of the claspers in fully grown males (see also Wolf, 1911: fig. 24) .

Distribution. Boorabbin; rock pool near Burracoppin (Western Australia) ( Wolf, 1911). Timms (in press) records it from gnammas (rock pools) throughout the wheatbelt of southwestern Western Australia.
