Distribution. Freshwater habitats in tropical South America ( Euryrhynchus ) and West Africa ( Euryrhynchoides and Euryrhynchina ) ( Fig. 2 ). South America: Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and Brazil ( Tiefenbacher 1978; Pereira 1991; García-Dávila & Magalhães 2003; Valência & Campos 2010). West Africa: Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Cameroon ( Powell 1976; Nwadiaro 1984; De Grave et al. 2017).

Remarks. The euryrhynchid genera are easily distinguishable from one another, not only in rostral morphology, but especially so in respect to the morphology of the male second pleopod. In Euryrhynchina the appendix masculina is individualized (as in the norm in carideans) (see Powell 1976: fig. 7J, K), whereas in Euryrhynchoides and Euryrhynchus an appendix masculina is lacking and the endopod modified into a complex structure (herein termed gonopod), which varies morphologically in both genera. In Euryrhynchoides the gonopod is twisted and longer than the exopod, with an accessory branch on the dorsal region and no discernible appendix interna ( Fig. 5D, E [arrows]). In Euryrhynchus the gonopod is either stout, twisted, and shorter than the exopod ( E. amazoniensis , E. taruman sp. nov. and E. tuyuka sp. nov.) ( Figs. 17B–E , 23 ) or elongated, straight, and longer than the exopod ( E. burchelli , E. pemoni , E. tomasi and E. wrzesniowskii ) ( Fig. 29B, C , 30 ). In Euryrhynchus , both forms of gonopods do have an appendix interna on the mesial margin of the gonopod, but no accessory branch as in Euryrhynchoides .

Several authors have speculated about the origin and evolution of the gonopod in euryrhynchids. Gordon (1935) was the first to describe and illustrate the pleopods of an euryrhynchid ( E. wrzesniowskii ), considering the gonopod as an elongated endopod with a reduced appendix interna but devoid of appendix masculina. Gordon’s (1935) definition of the gonopod was used subsequently by Holthuis (1950a, 1951, 1955). However, the discovery of the genera Euryrhynchina and Euryrhynchoides led Powell (1976) to the conclusion that the gonopod in Euryrhynchus is actually the appendix masculina in an endopod lacking its distal part, but provided with appendix interna. Furthermore, Powell (1976) speculated that the biramous gonopod in Euryrhynchoides is formed by the modification of both endopod and appendix masculina (= accessory branch located dorsally, Fig. 5D, E [arrows]), with the appendix interna lacking. Kensley & Walker (1982) were the first to compare both forms of gonopods in Euryrhynchus , referring to the gonopod of E. amazoniensis as an endopod ( sensu Gordon 1935 ), although mentioning the suggestion of Chace (pers. comm. to Kensley and Walker) that the real endopod of Euryrhynchus was lost and replaced by the appendix masculina, thus supporting, in part, Powell’s (1976) hypothesis. The idea that the gonopod in Euryrhynchus represents a modification of the endopod (instead of a developed appendix masculina) has been accepted by numerous subsequent authors, such as Pereira (1991, 1997), García-Dávila & Magalhães (2003), De Grave (2007) and Valência & Campos (2010). Mistakenly, García-Dávila & Magalhães (2003) refer to the appendix interna on the gonopod of E. amazoniensis as a reduced appendix masculina. De Grave (2007) speculated that the appendix masculina ( sensu Powell 1976 ; herein termed accessory branch) on the gonopod of Euryrhynchoides could be the result of a modification on the appendix interna (individualized on the gonopod of Euryrhynchus ) or even the appendix interna and masculina coalesced. Typically, the appendix masculina carries cuspidate setae distally (cf. Pereira 1997: fig. 34; Powell 1976: fig. 7J, K) and is, as a rule, inserted on the mesial surface of the endopod, thus located between the appendix interna and the endopod. In our perspective the presence of cuspidate setae on the mesial surface of the gonopod in Euryrhynchoides and Euryrhynchus ( Figs. 5D, E , 17B–E , 23 , 29B, C , 30 ) may be regarded as an indication that the gonopod is formed by the coalescenced appendix masculina and endopod. In Euryrhynchoides , the accessory branch on the gonopod was referred as to “appendix masculina” by Powell (1976). We instead use the term “accessory branch”, since it can be recognized neither as an appendix interna nor as an appendix masculina due to the lack of cincinulli and cuspidate setae, respectively, but possessing instead a series of ridges on the apical region ( Fig. 5D, E ).

The branchial formula in Euryrhynchidae is similar among the genera, except for the number of arthrobranchs on the third maxilliped. In Euryrhynchina the third maxilliped has no arthrobranchs; in Euryrhynchoides there are 2 arthrobranchs; and in Euryrhynchus there is only 1 arthrobranch ( Table 1).

The fourth and fifth thoracic sternites in Euryrhynchidae present a transversal carina, whose median region varies in shape. In Euryrhynchoides the carina on the fourth sternite bears a well developed lanceolate median process ( Fig. 5B ), whereas the carina on the fifth sternite presents a reduced lobular process ( Fig. 5C ). In Euryrhynchina the carinae of both sternites carry a reduced lobular process ( Fig. 3 B, C ), whereas in Euryrhynchus the median process on the carinae of both sternites can be absent or variable in size, ranging from a low to a distinct, acute process (not as strong as in Euryrhynchoides ) ( Figs. 9D–F , 18D, E , 24D, E , 31D, E , 38D, E , 45D, E , 50D, E , 55D, E ).
