Résumé / Abstract

Stomatopods and scyllarids have previously been reported from the "Pesciara" of Bolca (Verona) by Secretan (1975) and Förster (1984). The recent discovery of new stomatopod and scyllarid specimens from Monte Postale (Altissimo - Vicenza) increases the carcinologic knowledge from the Cenozoic of Italy. The order Stomatopoda Latreille, 1817, includes Pseudosquilla lessinea n. sp. (Pseudosquillidae Manning, 1977). The infraorder Achelata Scholz & Richter, 1995, includes Scyllarides bolcensis n. sp. (Scyllaridae Latreille, 1825). Pseudosquilla Dana, 1852, has known to date by only one Recent species and two fossil species from the upper Eocene of Germany and from the lower Oligocene of Italy. This record extends its stratigraphic range into the lower Eocene. Scyllarides Gill, 1898, known to date only from the Eocene of Great Britain, is reported for the first time in the fossil record of Italy.
