Neoglyphea
''Neoglyphea inopinata'' is a species of glypheoid lobster, a group thought long extinct before ''Neoglyphea'' was discovered. It is a lobster-like animal, up to around in length, although without claws. It is only known from 17 specimens, caught at two sites – one at the entrance to Manila Bay in the Philippines, and one in the Timor Sea, north of Australia. Due to the small number of specimens available, little is known about the species, but it appears to live up to five years, with a short larval phase. A second species, previously included in ''Neoglyphea'', is now placed in a separate genus, ''Laurentaeglyphea''.
==Taxonomy==
''Neoglyphea inopinata'' was named in 1975 by Jacques Forest and Michèle de Saint Laurent of the ''フランス語:Muséum national d'histoire naturelle'' in Paris. It was based on a single damaged specimen that had been caught by the USFC ''Albatross'' in the Philippines in 1908, and deposited in the United States National Museum. De Saint Laurent examined the unidentified specimen while working on Thalassinidea at the Smithsonian Institution. The name ''Neoglyphea'' means "new ''Glyphea''", while the specific epithet ''ラテン語:inopinata'' means "unexpected".
A second extant species of glypheoid was originally placed in the genus ''Neoglyphea'' as ''Neoglyphea neocaledonica'', but was later split into a separate genus, ''Laurentaeglyphea''.
