Revision of the Global Fauna of <i>Leptochela</i> Stimpson, 1860 (Crustacea: Decapoda), Highlighting Phylogenetic Clades and a New Species by Alexander L. Vereshchaka, Anastasiia A. Lunina, Dmitry N. Kulagin, Jørgen Olesen, Laure Corbari

“…However, our phylogenetic conclusions were based on a consensus approach, integrating morphological, molecular, and total evidence trees, which revealed three robust clades. We discuss the evolutionary development of quantitative and qualitative morphological traits in <i>Leptochela</i> and explore the potential causes of the incongruence between morphological and molecular signals, particularly in the context of pelagic eucarids transitioning from pelagic to benthopelagic habitats. …”
