Publication
This is the second part of a revision of the most plesiomorphic genera in the amphipod family Stenothoidae
sensu lato (see Krapp-Schickel and Koenemann 2006 for an overview and Krapp-Schickel 2008 for
the fi rst part). 41 species not belonging to Metopoides were plotted in a matrix using the same 61 characters
as in the fi rst part. Th e resulting group of Proboloides species (most probably not existing in the Austral-
Antarctic region) is discussed, a key for the members given and two new genera erected. Some species described
as Proboloides are redescribed and 2 species transferred to Metopoides. A key for all actual members
of Proboloides and a revised key for Metopoides is added. Th e remaining species, i.e. those actually being in
the genera Torometopa and Scaphodactylus, will be dealt with in the fi nal part of this series, together with
a key to all of them.

Editor's comment
Victometopa possibly also includes Proboloides armata Ledoyer, 1986. [details]
