Decapod Crustaceans of the Northwest Coast of North America
Rathbun MJ. 1904. Decapod Crustaceans of the Northwest Coast of North America. Harriman Alaska Expedition. 10:1-210
This report includes primarily the crabs and shrimps collected by the Harriman Expedition. In order to name the shrimps it became necessary to overhaul the large collection of undetermined material of that group which has accumulated in the U. S. National Museum. This was derived from several years' work of the Albatross, and from the investigations of Dr. W. H. Dall and others, and embraces the entire coast from Arctic Alaska to southern California. The results of this study are given below, short descriptions of the new species having already been published in the Proceedings of the National Museum (xxiv, pp. 885-905, May, 1902). More than that, the accompanying list of species is designed to serve as a check-list of the Decapoda known to in-habit the region indicated, together with their distribution.
