Chaetocorophium
''Chaetocorophium'' is a monotypic genus of Amphipoda, amphipods in the Family (biology), family Corophiidae, containing only the species ''Chaetocorophium lucasi''. ''Chaetocorophium'' is very closely related to ''Paracorophium'', and some researchers propose synonym (taxonomy), synonymising the two genera. ''C. lucasi'' is endemic to New Zealand, where it is found only in a few sites in the North Island (Lake Rotorua, Lake Waikare, Lake Rotoiti, Bay of Plenty, Lake Rotoiti, at Whakatāne, Raglan, New Zealand, Raglan, Waitara, New Zealand, Waitara, and Whanganui) and in lakes and intertidal mudflats across South Island. It is epigean, and was listed as "Sparse" in the 2002 New Zealand Threat Classification System list for freshwater invertebrates. References
