| Abstract : | The partially known species Niphargus rhodi S. Karaman, 1950b (Amphipoda, fam. Niphargidae) was described based on one female from the subterranean waters of Rhodos Island ["(spring on the Propheta Mt. (?Elias?)" (? = Profitis Ilias)], and later only mentioned by Pesce & Maggi (1983) for several localities of this island accompanied sometimes with amphipods Bogidiella longiflagellum S. Kar. 1959 or Medigidiella chappuisi (Ruffo, 1952). This species, discovered and collected in numerous localities on Rhodos Island by various scientists, is now redescribed and figured, and its variability and relation to other members of genus Niphargus of Greece and some adjacent regions is discussed |
