Dear Michael
I just saw your request, at a first glance I don't think we have any of the species you listed, but I will double check (most of the material we have is from the Portuguese coast)
I wonder if you are aware of the 16th International Colloquium on Amphipoda (16th ICA) which we are organising in Aveiro, 7-11th September 2015? Here is the link to our website: http://16ica.web.ua.pt/
My best wishes

Dear Michael,
I have published on amphipods in parts of these areas and will be happy to help (see some references below). The species in your list I am very familiar with. What is the status of the book?

Dear Lene and Filipe,
thank you for your answers. Maybe one of you will find some material for sending.
Thank you for the announcement of the ICA.
Bets wishes

Dear Michael
Would you still be interested in O. othonis and/or Leptocheirus hirsutimanus? Got them both from the Cleaverbank. O. othonis only a single female.
Dear Ton,
phantastic. Yes, I'm interested in material of Leptocheirus hirsutimanus (O. othonis is done). I have some from the Museum, but these have to be handled very carefully and no preparation is possible. So, it would be very nice to get specimens of L.h.
Best regards
Michael
