G. longifissura sp. nov. is also recorded from Kei Mouth (32°41'S), South Africa (Fig. 1), where it occurred with G. psammodytes. The present species overlapped along a 70 m transect into the breaker zone. Sampling was done with a sledge from the low-water mark out to a depth of 1,5 m. Beyond the 1,5 m depth contour, sampling with the sledge apparatus was not possible due to excessive turbulence. Along the transect clear peaks of maximum distribution were evident for each of the two species. G. bispinosa sp. nov. was more abundant at the upper limit of the low-water mark, while G. longifissura sp. nov. was more common in the breaker zone. Both species were also collected along the edge of the sandbank inside the mouth of the Mgazana estuary. At night they were taken in the breaker zone with a plankton net (WP 2 net of 190 micron aperture towed by hand in water of 1 to 1,5 m depth). They were absent in surface plankton samples taken at 28°E '30°E Lesotho. 32°S N A Kei Mouth Nahoon 300 km Fig. 1.
