| Abstract: | Amphiporus elongatus Stephenson, 1911, is redescribed from histological studies of five specimens obtained from near the type locality. The systematic position of the species is reassessed and a new genus, Psammamphiporus , is established for it. Psammamphiporus elongatus (Stephenson) is so far known only from two intertidal sandy localities in the Firth of Clyde. |
