Type species
Stenobermuda acutirostrata Schultz, 1979; by original designation and monotypy.
Species included
Stenobermuda acutirostrata Schultz, 1979, Bermuda (type species); S. brucei Kensley & Schotte, 2002, Zanzibar, Tanzania; S. iliffei Kensley, 1994, Bermuda; S. mergens Botosaneanu & Iliffe, 1999, Bahamas; S. syzygus (Barnard, 1940), South Africa.
Remarks
Stenobermuda is a small genus with both marine and stygobiont species. Recent diagnoses do not require modification in light of other recent revisions, and the genus can be readily recognised by the prominent, narrow, and acute rostral process, small or absent eyes, and pereopod 1 articles without prominent processes or an expanded propodus. Sexual dimorphism is weak in the genus.
A diagnostic character of the genus Stenobermuda Schultz, 1979 is the acute and distinct rostrum, but one species, S. iliffei Kensley, 1994 is described as having a rostrum but figured with a pseudorostrum. The presence or absence of a rostrum of S. iliffei therefore does need to be confirmed to assess its status within the genus. Other than the apparent difference is rostrum the species agrees entirely with Stenobermuda.
