Phronimidae (Amphipoda, Hyperiidea) of the South Pacific Ocean
Crustaceana, 1971[Dans le present memoire est etudiee la collection de phronimides que l'expedition americaine de recherche sur l'Antarctique a rapportee du sud de l'ocean Pacifique, y compris le secteur du Pacifique de l'ocean Antarctique. Une nouvelle forme de mâle du genre Phronima est decrite.

Species of the Phronimidae were studied for the micromorphology of their pereopods. Novel structures were found on the dactyls and are described in detail. A hypothesis is advanced that these structures serve also for external digestion and absorption of the tissues of their gelatinous plankton hosts.

The barrel of the pelagic amphipod Phronima sedentaria (Forsk.) (Crustacea: hyperiidea)
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1978Abstract Several pelagic animals have been postulated as the source of the transparent ‘barrel’ in which Phronima sedentaria (Forsk.) lives. It has been commonly held, although not on good evidence, that they are derived from tunicates. Many barrels, however, do not bear a close resemblance with the group most frequently proposed, pyrosomes.

The Biological Bulletin, 2020
Phronimid amphipods are oceanic crustaceans associated with gelatinous zooplankters. Their host organisms belong mainly to two taxonomic groups: tunicates (salps or pyrosomes; subphylum Tunicata) and siphonophores (Cnidaria). After these amphipods devour the inner tissues of their hosts, they display the unique behavior of modifying their hosts into ...

Deep-sea Research, 1977
Abstract We have collected representatives of 12 of the 22 families of Amphipoda Hyperiidea while SCUBA diving. We have found that members of five families (Paraphronimidae, Lycaeopsidae, Pronoidae, Parascelidae and Platyscelidae) are associated only with siphonophores.

Feeding and gut structure of Parathemisto gaudichaudi (Guerin) (Amphipoda, Hyperiidea)
Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1975Previous (workers who have examined the gut contents of members of the genus Parathemisto, and who have kept and fed specimens in laboratory conditions, have concluded that they are chiefly carnivorous in habit, feeding largely on zooplankton, and to a lesser extent on phytoplankton (Conover, 1960; Baker, 1963; Kane, 1967).The gut of P. gaudichaudi has

On the Identity of Typhis Rapax H. Milne Edwards, 1830 (Amphipoda, Hyperiidea)
Crustaceana, 1996[The status of Typhis rapax H. Milne Edwards, 1830, has been uncertain due to the brief original description and lack of illustrations. Stephensen (1925) having examined a specimen labeled T. rapax, presumably from the collection of Milne Edwards, determined that it was the same as Hemityphis tenuimanus Claus, 1879.
