Abstract
Two new exoedicerotid amphipod species from the Argentine continental shelf are described: Exoediceropsis lobula n.sp. and E. affinis n.sp. Both species were collected during benthos dredging carried out by the R/V Shinkai Maru and are basically distinguished by the rostrum, gnat hopods 1 and 2, and telson. In addition, a re-description of E. chilto ni Schellenberg, 1931 is presented.
