Etymology. The new specific name is dedicated to Dr. Joo-Lae Cho, who has significantly contributed to our knowledge of freshwater crustaceans in South Korea.
DNA sequences. In total, seven sequences were determined: holotype (NNIBRIV21629), four sequences—28S ( LC467007 View Materials ; 1301 bp), H3 ( LC467005 View Materials ; 328 bp), COI ( LC467001 View Materials ; 658 bp), and 16S ( LC467003 View Materials ; 420 bp); and paratype (NNIBRIV21630), three sequences—H3 ( LC467006 View Materials ; 328 bp), COI ( LC467002 View Materials ; 658 bp), and 16S ( LC467004 View Materials ; 420 bp). The holotype and paratype shared identical 16S and H3 sequences. Their partial COI sequences were exceptional in occurring at a single variable site between them (1/658).
Phylogenetic position and genetic distances. The BI tree (mean ln L = −15673.962; Fig. 10 View FIGURE 10 ) for estimating the phylogenetic position of the new species had an almost identical topology to that of the ML tree (ln L = −16227.759; not shown). Pseudocrangonyx joolaei sp. nov. formed a well-supported clade (BS = 78%, PP = 0.99) with P. akatsukai Tomikawa & Nakano, 2018 , which is indigenous to the western part of Japan. However, the precise phylogenetic position of this clade within the genera Pseudocrangonyx and Procrangonyx was not resolved by the present phylogenetic analyses.
The pairwise uncorrected p -distance between the 28S sequences of P. joolaei sp. nov. ( LC467007 View Materials ) and P. akatsukai ( LC171506 View Materials , LC171510 View Materials , LC171525 View Materials , LC334151 View Materials ) was 1.0–1.2% (mean = 1.1%); this divergence was calculated based on the 1301 aligned positions after eliminating gap positions from the dataset. The uncorrected COI p -distance between the present new species ( LC467001 View Materials , LC467002 View Materials ) and P. akatsukai ( LC171507 View Materials , LC171511 View Materials , LC171526 View Materials , LC334152 View Materials ) was 14.0–16.1% (mean = 15.3%).
Remarks. Although Uéno (1966) reported local variations of morphological characteristics among the Korean populations of P. asiaticus , he did not mention about a variation of sternal gills. In this study, we confirmed that the number of sternal gills of P. joolaei sp. nov. is different from the original description of P. asiaticus (three pairs of sternal gills on pereonites 2 to 4 in the former versus four pairs on pereonites 2 to 5 in the latter). The number of sternal gills is used as a diagnostic character to distinguish species in some amphipod taxa, e.g. the pontogeneiid genus Awacaris ( Kuribayashi et al. 1996) . Thus, we concluded that P. joolaei sp. nov. is distinguishable from the true P. asiaticus as a distinct new species. In addition, the present new species can be distinguished from the topotypic P. asiaticus by the combination of the following features that have been considered as diagnostic characters in the previous taxonomic papers of Pseudocrangonyx (features of P. asiaticus in parentheses; Uéno 1934): 1) head with moderately (shallow) concave antennal sinus, 2) accessory flagellum of antenna 1 not exceeding (fully exceeding) first article of primary flagellum, and 3) terminal article of uropod 3 shorter (longer) than robust setae on distal part of proximal article.
It is still not known whether all the Korean sternal-gill possessors of Pseudocrangonyx belong to the present P. joolaei sp. nov. As Uéno (1966) stated that the Korean “ P. asiaticus ” possessed the sternal gills on pereonites 2–4, the sternal gills may be a synmorphy between the Korean “ P. asiaticus ” sensu Uéno (1966) including P. joolaei sp. nov. from Simbok Cave. However, Uéno (1966) also described that specimens of the several populations had a terminal article of uropod 3 that was longer than robust setae on the distal part of the proximal article of the same uropod. The taxonomic status of the remaining populations identified as “ P. asiaticus ” by Uéno (1966) should be investigated by future systematic studies.
The present phylogenetic analyses showed that P. joolaei sp. nov. formed a monophyletic clade with the Japanese P. akatsukai . The following morphological characteristics observed in these two species also imply the close relationships between them: 1) anteroventral corner of urosomite 1 with seta, 2) antenna 2 with calceoli in both sexes, 3) carpi of gnathopods 1 and 2 with serrate robust setae on posterodistal corners, 4) number of pleopodal rami more than 10-articulate, and 5) inner margin of pleopodal inner rami with bifid setae. In addition to the presence of the sternal gills in P. joolaei sp. nov., the present new species can be clearly discriminated from P. akatsukai by the following features (features of P. akatsukai in parentheses; Tomikawa & Nakano 2018): 1) antenna 1 shorter (longer) than half of body length, 2) palp article 3 of mandible shorter (longer) than article 2, and 3) telson cleft for 45.2% (9.2%) of length.
The obtained phylogenies revealed that P. joolaei sp. nov. is a close congener of the Japanese P. akatsukai and is nested within the phylogroup consisting of the Japanese P. akatsukai and P. yezonis Akatsuka & Komai, 1922 , Chinese P. elegantulus Hou in Zhao & Hou, 2017 , and Russian P. korkishkoorum Sidorov, 2006 and P. tiunovi Sidorov & Gontcharov, 2013 . The phylogenetic position of P. joolaei sp. nov. thus suggested that the sternal gill is a derived character within the pseudocrangonyctid amphipods. For our further understanding of the evolutionary history of sternalgill possessors in the genus Pseudocrangonyx , the phylogenetic position of the “true” P. asiaticus should be assessed by further study. As P. joolaei sp. nov. and P. akatsukai share characteristics in the anteroventral corner of urosomite 1 and serrate robust setae on the posterodistal corners of carpi of each of the gnathopods 1 and 2 with P. asiaticus , it is possible that the three species would form a monophyletic group within the family Pseudocrangonyctidae .
