Volume 19.2A presents valuable nomenclatural and biological facts on the syncarids, isopods, tanaidaceans and other minor peracarid orders of Crustacea known from Australia. It offers full taxonomic information for 89 families, 351 genera and 1076 described species, with the original literature as well as museum data on the type specimens. Each family introduction is accompanied by a line drawing of a representative species.

Volume 19.2B catalogues over 1200 species of amphipods (sea fleas, scuds and the beach and land hoppers), cumaceans and mysidaceans (opossum shrimps).
