Dynoides elegans is a species of isopod crustacean in the genus Dynoides.[1] It was originally described in 1923 by Pearl Lee Boone as "Cianella elegans" based on specimens from La Jolla (home of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography) and San Pedro, California.[2] It was transferred to the genus Dynoides in 2000, when Boone's genus was sunk into synonymy with Dynoides.[3]
