Boreomysinae
Boreomysinae is a subfamily of large, mostly deep-water oceanic mysid crustaceans from the family Mysidae. The name, which can be translated as "northern mysids", comes from the genus Boreomysis G.O. Sars, 1869, established for Boreomysis arctica (Krøyer, 1861) from the boreal waters of Atlantic. As more species have been discovered subsequently, the subfamily is considered panoceanic, and includes 38 species from two genera, Boreomysis and Neobirsteiniamysis Hendrickx et Tchindonova, 2020.
