For Böttger-Schnack (2005, p.201) this species is closely related to O. bathyalis , but differs in the proportional spine length on the endopod of P2, with the outer distal spine being longer than the conical projection, while this spine is only about as long as the projection in O. bathyalis.
O. parabathyalis is a sister species of O. ovalis; they can be separated by the proportional lengths of urosomites, with the 2 postgenital somites being relatively shorter in O. parabathyalis than in O. ovalis; the proportional length of outer subdistal endopod spine on P2, being about 2/3 the length of the distal spine in O. parabathyalis, while the two spines are equal in length in O. ovalis; the proportional lengths of exopodal setae on P5, with the inner element being almost as long as the outer element in O. parabathyalis, while this element is much shorter and spiniform in O. ovalis; proportional lengths of caudal rami, with seta III being longer than seta IV in O. parabathyalis, whereas the two setae are equal in length in O. ovalis, and seta VII, which is shorter in O. parabathyalis than in O. ovalis. These characters allow for a separation of the two species without dissection.
According to Vives & Shmeleva (2010, p.276) the male of O. bathyalis belongs to this latter spesies and not O. parabathyalis. | | | Last update : 26/01/2015 | |
