Genus Pseudobranchiomysis n. gen. Type species. Pseudobranchiomysis arenae n. sp. Diagnosis. Body robust with pigmented spots throughout. Carapace covering more than half of the cephalothorax in dorsal view, with anterior margin produced into a triangular rostrum with a rounded apex. Eyes well developed, with reniform cornea. Antennular peduncle of male with processus masculinus well developed and very hirsute. Antennal scale large, lanceolate, setose on both margins, with a pointed apex and absence of distal suture. Mandibles with well-defined molar process. Maxilla with distal segment of endopod expanded, longer than broad. Labrum without frontal process. Endopod of thoracopods with 5 - to 7 -segmented carpopropodus. Male pleopods biramous, with a well-developed pseudobranchial lobe; endopod of 1 st pair very small and unjointed, 11 - segmented exopod; 2 nd to 5 th pairs with both rami long and subequal, endopod 11 -segmented and exopod 11 - to 14 -segmented; exopod of 4 th pair with modified setae on antepenultimate, penultimate and ultimate segments. Female pleopods reduced, small and narrow. Telson with posterior cleft armed with many fine spines on convex margins and two long plumose setae at centre. Uropods densely furnished with setae. Inner uropod with row of seven spiniform setae on inner margin, extending from statocyst edge to nearly three-quarters of uropod length. Etymology. The generic name refers to the well-developed pseudobranchial lobes present in male pleopods. Remarks. According to Mauchline’s (1980) identification key of Mysidae, the mysids reported here belong to the subfamily Leptomysinae, as demonstrated by the following diagnostic characters: antennal scale entire, setose all around, without terminal spine; labrum normal and symmetrical; endopods of 3 rd to 8 th thoracic limbs with carpus and propodus fused and subdivided, no oblique articulation; pleopods of male biramous; statocyst present; exopod of uropod undivided and outer margin of uropod exopod without spines. Our specimens were compared to all recognized genera included in the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) website (Mees 2012) for Leptomysinae, and were found to bear a closest resemblance to the genus Pseudomysis Sars, 1879. Similar characters to this species where seen in the shape and armature of the telson, particularly in the distal cleft with each apical lobe convex and armed with fine spines, lateral margins with regularly arranged spiniform setae and two long and plumose setae at the base of the cleft. However, there are some small differences: whereas in Pseudomysis each apical lobe has single, long and stout spiniform setae at the apex, in our specimens each apical lobe has two spiniform setae at the apex, the external setae longer than the internal setae. Also, Pseudobranchiomysis, has more spinose setae on the lateral margin of the telson and more spines on the cleft margin than in Pseudomysis. Our specimens also differ from Pseudomysis in the form of the anterior margin of the carapace; the absence of a distal articulation on the antennal scale; the presence of large pseudobranchial lobes in male pleopods; the lower number of endopod and exopod segments in the male pleopods, and the different arrangement of spiniform setae in the uropodal endopods. We assign our specimens to a proposed new genus Pseudobranchiomysis, characterized by a combination of the three main features: antennal scale setose all around with a pointed apex and distal suture absent; male pleopods with large pseudobranchial lobes and telson with posterior cleft armed with many fine spines on the convex margins.

Apex of telson cleft, sides of notch convex, furnished with fine close-set pectinate spines and centre defined by two long plumose setae. Cleft about 1 / 7 of length of telson. Lateral margins of telson armed with 23 spinose setae, including two pairs of terminal setae. Uropods (Fig. 6 C) broadly lanceolate in form and densely setose on both margins. Outer uropod unjointed, 1.3 times longer than inner uropod. Inner uropod with large statocyst, 1.2 times longer than telson, inner margin with row of seven spinose setae, extending from statocyst edge to near three-quarters of uropod length; proximal setae closely set, distal ones more separated (Fig. 6 D). Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin arenae, sand grains, and refers to the pigmented spots throughout the body segments, giving it the appearance of grains of sand from the beach. Ecological note. This species occurred in large numbers throughout the entire sampling period (two years) in the surf zone (0–1 m depth) of Monte Hermoso and Pehuen Có sandy beaches. Females were observed carrying eggs or larvae in the brood pouch during spring-summer, mainly during November and December of both years. The large number of specimens found in samples indicates that this species is a gregarious form and likely endemic to this particular zone. The population of this mysid shared the surf community mainly with Arthromysis magellanica (Mysida), Artemesia longinaris (Decapoda), Leptoserolis bonaerensis (Isopoda) and Monocorophium insidiosum (Isopoda). Temperature conditions ranged between 11.5 ºC and 23.3 ºC and salinity between 25.3 and 36.6.

The spatial and temporal patterns within the surf zone epibenthic assemblages were studied in a coastal fringe of Argentina to determine whether assemblage compositions, abundance, species richness and diversity vary spatially and temporarily. Sampling was conducted seasonally in two sandy beaches over 2 years with a benthic sledge used to collect the fauna in the upper centimeters of soft bottom sediments and the epifauna on the sediment surface. Physical variables were measured in the same coastal sites where biological sampling was conducted. A total of 58 morphospecies were collected. Peracarid crustaceans were the most abundant group. The mysid Pseudobranchiomysis arenae (new genus-new species) (29.73 ± 17.79 ind. per sample) and the isopod Leptoserolis bonaerensis (51.54 ± 22.35 ind. per sample) were the most abundant and common species and were present regularly throughout the sampling period. Differences in the surf zone community composition were found between the beaches; these differences could be related to variation in physical parameters such as sand grain size and wave climate, indicating the possible influence of the morphodynamic state of the beaches on the epibenthic assemblages. A seasonal abundance trend was detected, reflecting the changes in abundance of the two dominant species; the richness pattern was not easily detectable due to the sporadic appearance of non-resident species in the surf zone, probably due to different causes, including dispersion by entry of water from surrounding areas, littoral currents and storms. The surf zone studied presents a complex and dynamic epibenthic community that appears to be influenced by the morphodynamic state of the beach and the dynamic of non-resident species.

- Abstract
This contribution reports the first record of intertidal reefs built by the sabellariid worm Sabellaria nanella in the lower intertidal at Monte Hermoso beach, Argentina (39°S). All previous records of S. nanella in the study area correspond to solitary individuals from shallow subtidal depths in coastal environments, while the present findings refer to well established reefs on stony rocks. Worms sort medium size sand grains to build the reefs, which contain higher amount of organic matter than the surrounding sediments. Size structure of worms shows multiple size cohorts that include recent recruits and mature adults. Many invertebrates, i.e. various annelids, arthropods, molluscs, nemerteans and nematodes, are the frequent organisms living within the reef, some of them already recorded in the area. The presence of intertidal reefs of S. nanella indicates that the species has plasticity to adapt to environments with different physical conditions (subtidal–intertidal areas).
