Zootaxa 4483 (2): 365-374, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4483.2.8
03E587F3FFDE4F1BFF22FB2DFAE01A0F.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Of the known species of Chorisquilla, C. orientalis n. sp. appears to be closely related to the following five species sharing the spinose lateral and dorsal surfaces of the telson and one or more dorsal spines on the proximal surface of the uropodal protopod adjacent to the articulation with abdominal somite 6: C. brooksii (De Man, 1887), C. mehtae Erdmann & Manning, 1998, C. hystrix (Nobili, 1906), C. kroppi Ahyong & Erdmann, 1998, and C. spinosissima (Pfeffer, 1888). Of these C. orientalis n. sp. is most similar to C. mehtae, from Indonesia, sharing short lateral telson spines, numerous short, slender dorsal spinules that do not obscure the dorsal surface, and broad, pyriform submedian telson bosses. Chorisquilla orientalis n. sp., however, can be readily distinguished from C. mehtae by the features of abdominal somite 5, telson and ocular scales. In C. orientalis, the dorsal surface of abdominal somite 5 is ornamented with deep longitudinal grooves and irregular pits (versus largely smooth with few small, shallow pits in C. mehtae). In C. orientalis, the anterior margin of abdominal somite 6 and the anterior sclerotized portion of the arthrodial membrane between somites 5 and 6 each bear a transverse row of spinules; both rows of spinules are absent in C. mehtae. The median boss on the telson is more triangular in C. orientalis, with the anterior margin more weakly rounded than in C. mehtae, and a rounded boss present anterior to each submedian boss in the new species (absent in C. mehtae). The ocular scales are more transversely oriented and proportionally wider in C. orientalis than in C. mehtae. Conversely, in C. mehtae, the anterior margins of the ocular scales are distinctly oblique to the body axis, and together, are about half the basal width of the rostral plate (versus about three-fourths). Chorisquilla orientalis also reaches a considerably larger size than C. mehtae, to TL 59 mm versus TL 17 mm, and males are mature by at least TL 20 mm (compared to C. mehtae, which are mature by at least TL 11 mm); Chorisquilla orientalis is presently the largest known species of the genus. Like C. orientalis, C. brooksii also has short dorsal spines on the telson that do not obscure the surface, but can be separated by the much wider submedian telson bosses (length less than twice width versus less than twice width) and greater lateral marginal spination in adults (8 – 14 versus 4 – 6). The remaining species of the genus with a spinose telson, C. hystrix, C. kroppi, and C. spinosissima, all differ from C. orientalis in having long lateral and dorsal telson spines that obscure the surface and outline of the telson.	en	Hwang, Hee-Seung, Ahyong, Shane T., Kim, Won (2018): A new species of Chorisquilla Manning, 1969 (Stomatopoda: Protosquillidae) from Korea and Japan with redescription of C. mehtae Erdmann & Manning, 1998.

03E587F3FFDE4F1BFF22FB2DFAE01A0F.taxon	description	Chorisquilla orientalis n. sp. shows allometric changes in the shape of the ocular scales and anterior margin of lateral plates of carapace, and in the spination of the telson. The ocular scales become wider with increasing body size, with the combined width 60 % of the basal rostral width in juveniles increasing to 75 % in adults. As in postlarvae and juveniles of other protosquillids, the dorsal bosses of abdominal somite 6 in the smallest juveniles of C. orientalis are posteriorly armed and slenderer than in adults. The number of lateral spines of the telson also increases with body size. Four lateral marginal spines are present on the telson by TL 11 mm (Figs. 1 B, 3 B), 8 – 13 spines by TL 20 – 48 mm (Figs. 1 A, 2 G), and 14 spines by TL 49 mm. Also, the anterior margin of the lateral plate on carapace of C. orientalis n. sp. slopes more posteriorly in smaller specimens. In specimens to about TL 32 mm, the anterolateral angle of the lateral plates of the carapace does not reach anteriorly to the level of the base of the rostral plate. By TL 32 – 40 mm, the anterolateral angle of the lateral plates of the carapace reach to or slightly anterior to the level of the base of the rostral plate. Previous records of C. brooksii from Japan (Fukuda, 1910), reidentified as C. spinosissima by Komai (1927), are clearly referable to C. orientalis as shown by Fukuda (1910: pl. IV, fig. 1, 1 a). Only one species of Chorisquilla, C. spinosissima, has been reported from Korea (Kim & Rho, 1972). This single report of C. spinosissima is not accompanied by figures or descriptive remarks, and the specimen on which the record is based is no longer extant. Extensive surveys in Korean waters over the past three decades, however, have only ever revealed a single species of Chorisquilla, that named here as C. orientalis. Given the broad morphological similarities between C. orientalis n. sp. and C. spinosissima, especially in juveniles with lesser developed telson spination, and Komai’s (1927) misidentification of C. spinosissima from Japan, we regard the record of Kim & Rho (1972) to be almost certainly based on C. orientalis. Similarly, the recent record of Gonodactylus chiragra from Korea figured by Cho et al. (2006) is clearly based on C. orientalis. Two other gonodactyloids, Gonodactylaceus falcatus (Forskål, 1775) (Hwang et al. 2018) and Taku spinosocarinatus (Fukuda, 1911) (Ahyong et al. 2018), have recently been reported from Korean waters, and are distinguished in the key below.	en	Hwang, Hee-Seung, Ahyong, Shane T., Kim, Won (2018): A new species of Chorisquilla Manning, 1969 (Stomatopoda: Protosquillidae) from Korea and Japan with redescription of C. mehtae Erdmann & Manning, 1998.
