Type species designation provided: "As to the generic name Apherusa, it has recently been proposed by Mr. A. Walker to replace that of Pherusa Leach, the latter being inadmissible, since the species upon which Leach founded his genus has turned out to be only the female of Gammarella brevicaudata. The species to which Mr. Walker applied the generic name Apherusa, is that described below as A. Jurinii, which, in my opinion, is congeneric with the 4 other species here included in the same genus.
