COMMENTS

Two species of erymids are known from the Solnhofen Lithographic Limestones, Eryma modestiforme and Galicia veltheimii (Münster, 1839) . All the studied specimens are ascribed to E. modestiforme for the cephalothoracic groove pattern and also for the short chela strongly tuberculate of pereiopod1(elongate and weakly tuberculate in G. veltheimii ).See Förster (1966) for detailed discussion on the genera of Erymidae .
