Species Pseudhaloptilus eurygnathus - Plate 1 of morphological figuresissued from : O. Tanaka in Publs Seto Mar. Biol. Lab., 1964, XII (1). [p.91, Fig.219]. As Pachyptilus eurygnathus.
Female: a, habitus (dorsal); b, forehead (left lateral side); c, last thoracic segment and urosome (left lateral side); d, masticatory edge of Md; e, P1; f, P5.
Nota: The urosome segments and furca are in the proportional lengths as 55:9:6:12:18 = 100. The furcal rami as long as wide. A1 exceeds the end of the furca by distal 5 segments.


Species Pseudhaloptilus eurygnathus - Plate 2 of morphological figuresissued from : J.M. Bradford-Grieve in The Marine Fauna of New Zealand: Pelagic Calanoid Copepoda. National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA). NIWA Biodiversity Memoir, 111, 1999. [p.67, Fig.38]. As Pchyptilus eurygnathus.
Female: A, habitus (dorsal); B, left Md; C, Mx1; D, P1; E, P5.


Species Pseudhaloptilus eurygnathus - Plate 3 of morphological figuresIssued from : G.O. Sars in Résult. Camp. Scient. Prince Albert I, 69, pls.1-127 (1924). [Pl.CXIV, figs.1-13]. As Pachyptilus eurygnathus.
Female: 1, habitus (dorsal); 2, idem (lateral left side); 3,rostrum; 4, A2; 5, Md; 6, Md (masticatory edge); 7Mx1; 8, Mx2; 9, Mxp; 10, P1; 11, P3; 12, P5; 13, posterior part of urosome (dorsal).


Species Pseudhaloptilus eurygnathus - Plate 4 of morphological figuresissued from : R.B.S. Sewell in The John Murray Expedition, 1933-34, Scientific Reports, VIII (1), 1947. [p.166, Fig.44, I]. As Pachyptilus eurygnathus.
Process on the posterior aspect of the 2nd basal segment of P1.
Remarks: The shape of the hook-like or spine-like process shows some variation in different genera, but it is undoubtedly homologous throughout the whole series. The function of this organ is unknown.
