Eurythenes thurstoni is a species of amphipod of the genus Eurythenes. It was first described in 2004 and named after Mike Thurston, a marine biologist specialising in deep-sea amphipods.[1]
E. thurstoni is found in the west South Pacific Ocean and the North and South Atlantic.[1][2] It can grow up to 46mm long, making it the smallest species of Eurythenes.[2][3]
