Description
GENUS MARINOGAMMARUS SCHELLENBERG, 1937 B
Type species
Gammarus marinus Leach, 1815.
Aditional species
Molecularly (conditionally) proven (Hou et al., 2014) taxa are: Gammarus obtusatus Dahl, 1938, Marinogammarus pirloti Sexton and Spooner, 1940; probably also Gammarus finmarchicus Dahl, 1938, and Marinogammarus atlanticus Dahl, 1958.
Distribution
Marinogammarus spp. inhabit shallow eastern and north-western North Atlantic waters, particularly where influenced by freshwater inflow. If G. olivii belongs here, as supposed by Sexton & Spooner (1940), the genus is also present in the Mediterranean.
Remarks
Marinogammarus is a sister clade to Homoeogammarus + Ponto-Caspian group of genera, and molecularly very distant from that sister group. It also differs in biogeography.
