Remarks
This subgenus contains five species: J. (A.) annandalei ( Tattersall, 1922) , J. (A.) naritai Morino, 1985 , J. (A.) fluvialis Morino, 1985 , J. (A.) suwaensis Morino, 1986 , and J. (A.) koreaensis Lee and Seo, 1990 . Jesogammarus (A.) debilis is closely related to J. (A.) annandalei in peduncular article 1 of antenna 1 without posterodistal spine, many setae on pleonites, and antenna 2 with short setae; it differs from J. (A.) annandalei in having bases of pereopods 6–7 without long setae, inner ramus of uropod 3 elongate and both rami with more plumose setae. Jesogammarus (A.) debilis can be distinguished from J. (A.) koreaensis and J. (A.) fluvialis by peduncular article 1 of antenna 1 without posterodistal spine and propodus palmar margin of female gnathopod 2 with weakly pectinate stiff setae. Jesogammarus (A.) debilis differs from J. (A.) naritai and J. (A.) suwaensis by pleonites without spines on dorsal margins.
This discovery of a new Annanogammarus species from a suburb of Beijing is interesting from a zoogeographical viewpoint. It is probable that Annanogammarus has invaded from the continent, through the Korean Peninsula to Japan.
