On recent expeditions to Madagascar and the French Polynesia, two researchers have discovered five new species of crustacean and a new genus named Triodonthea. Using morphological and molecular data they have discovered five new species of crustaceans in the waters of these regions. They are genetically different but morphologically very similar and they also found a new genus, named Triodonthea.
