Distribution map of Metacalanus aurivilli by geographical zones
|
| | | | | | | | | | Loc: | | | India (Goa, Saurashtra coast, Trivandrum coast, South, Cochin, Sri Lanka, Gulf of Mannar, Palk Bay, Lawson's Bay, Madras, Mandapam, Visakhapatnam), Madagascar, Nosy Bé, Nicobar Is., Straits of Malacca (Sangga estuary, mainly nearshore), off Phuket, Indonesia-Malaysia, SW Celebes, Viet Nam, China Seas (East China Sea, South China Sea), Taiwan (SW), Australia (E, G. of Carpentaria) | | | | N: | 26 | | | | Lg.: | | | (5) F: 0,65; M: 0,5; (290) F: 0,6-0,55; M: 0,5; (530) F: 0,6; M: 0,5; (795) F: 0,6; M: 0,5; (991) F: 0,55-0,64; M: 0,53-0,56; (1023) F: 0,53-0,56; M: 0,66-0,69; {F: 0,53-0,65; M: 0,50-0,69} | | | | Rem.: | euryhaline, epipelagic.
For Ohtsuka (1984, p.364) the comparison between the figures from Ceymon by Thompson & Scott (1903) and from the East China Sea by Chen & Zhang (1965), there are a few differences (presence of setae on the 2nd segments of P5 in male, and the characteristics of setae on terminal segments of P5 female). It is probable that Thompson & Scott overlooked the presence of setae on the 2nd segments of P5 male.
According to Greenwood (1978, p.5) because of its small size, the geographical distribution is perhaps under-estimated.
