It comes from the Cinvestav Merida research project, Invertebrate Benthic Diversity of the Yucatan Intertidal and Shallow Subtidal Zones. This genus is easily recognized by having an oval and flattened body; in males, the first two pereonal appendages are subchelate, while in females, only the first one is subchelate, the pleotelson is triangular, and the first pleopods and uropods are uniramous. This new species of <jats:italic>Ancinus<\/jats:italic> differs from all others by body surface smooth and unpigmented; eyes not elevated; suture between head and pereonite 1 complete, straight; mandible lacinia mobilis lateral margins parallel; 3 irregular teeth, 1 long, 2 short blunt sclerotized cusps; mandible palp third article inner margin with 12 blunt robust distal setae; 2 maxilliped coupling setae; coxae 5\u20137 visible in dorsal view; pleopod 2 endopod margin with 20 short setae; male appendix styliform, fluted, and shorter than endopod; curved tip. This is the third known species of <jats:italic>Ancinus<\/jats:italic> in the Gulf of Mexico and the tenth worldwide. A table with the main differences among the three known species in the gulf is also given.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0321489","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,9]],"date-time":"2025-05-09T18:06:25Z","timestamp":1746813985000},"page":"e0321489","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A new species of the isopod genus Ancinus (Isopoda: Sphaeromatidae) from sandy beaches of the northern Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Manuel","family":"Ortiz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mar\u00eda Teresa","family":"Herrera-Dorantes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3544-1178","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Pedro-Luis","family":"Ardisson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0321489.ref001","first-page":"401","article-title":"On the systematic on Ancinus (Isopoda, Sphaeromatidae), with the description of a new species from the tropical Eastern Pacific","volume":"28","author":"P Glynn","year":"1974","journal-title":"Pac Sci"},{"key":"pone.0321489.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"115","DOI":"10.1590\/S0373-55241987000200002","article-title":"The contribution of isopods in the feeding of Sympterygia spp. (Pisces: Rajidae) with a description of Ancinus gaucho sp. n.
