Above, A, drawings after Lee (1971) and below, B, the digitized images from specimens sampled in the same areas in 2005.

Nota: The chela of the male P5 plays a key role in its reproduction, during transfer of the spermatophore. Chela morphology may be central to reproductive isolation between species since pheromonal cues do not appear sufficient to prevent heterospecific encounters between males and females (See Goetze, 2008). Therefore, morphological differences of this appendage may prevent breeding between individuals belonging to different populations and species (see Goetze, 2008). Lee (1971) suggested that morphological variation among the chela of the male P5 could be used as an indicator to reflect differentiation among specimens from overwintering centres in the eastern and western North Atlantic and the mediterranean Sea.
The present study compares the morphology of the chela from samples collected in 2005, with similar measurements made by Lee in 1961 to determine if population differentiation observed by Lee (1971) has been maintened. In addition, complement morphological analyses with genetic variation to determine whether the morphological variations might represent genetically differentiated populations.
It is tempting to speculate whether this morphological variation may reflect incipient speciation in C. typicus.

Centropages typicus: diagram of the spermatophore and two-part coupling devices. Dorsal view.

Nota: The ripe male contains the spermatophore and its coupling device in the metasome where it lies in the spermatophore sac. The latter terminates in a short ductus ejaculatorius opening on the left side of the genital segment.
The spermatophore sac forms the spermatophore while the couplers are produced by complex masses of cells called formers (Heberer, 1932).
The testis is normally S-shaped and lies anterior to the formers and the couplers connecting with the spermatophore stalk via the vas deferenns.
The club-shaped spermatophore contains two distinct regions. The proximal region contains the spermatozoa which are separated from the distal region by a thin membrane. The distal region contains cells whose secretion promotes swelling which voids the spermatozoa by expansion in the manner of a hypodermic syringe (Marshall & Orr, 1955).
The coupling device is composed of the pale-brown posterior coupler which holds the posterior arm of the spermatophore stalk in a right lateral groove and the hyaline, lozenge-shaped, anterior coupler which holds the anterior arm of the spermatophore stalk.
The anterior coupler is composed of a single plate with indentations at the tips of the lateral extensions while the posterior coupler is composed of two plates which fuse ventro-laterally on the left side. The two couplers are completely separate from each other.
When attached, the spermatophore lies doesally and runs from left to right across the urosome of the female.
It was discovered that the posterior coupler is cemented to the ventral and right lateral surfaces of the decond urosome segment by cement produced from subcuticular glands.
The attacment point for the spermatophore stalk is at the tip of the right lateral protrusion of the segment. The spermatozoa enter the body of the female at this point. This is an unusual feature since the second urosome segment has not been considered as part of the genital complex. Using the notation of Giesbrecht (1892), the first female urosome segment, usually referred to as the genital segment, contains abdominal segments one to three. Thus the spermatophore stalk attaches to abdominal segment four. This raises the question of whether segment 4 should be considered part of the genital complex and referred to as the ''sub-genital segment'' or ''ancillary genital segment'' or even whether it is composed of abdominal segments three and four.
Fleminger (1967) notes the occurrence of different spermatophore ''placements'' in Labidocera.
Two types of ''placement'' were often found: Type 1 position showed the neck of the spermatophore in close proximity to the genital pore; Type 2 was usually attached to the left hand corner of the fifth thoracic segment. In general, type 2 only occurred if a spematophore was already placed in the type 1 position. Fleminger points out that a spermatophore in type 2 position is probably not functional. Clearly this is a different situation from that in Centropages typicus.
The anterior hyaline coupler brings the tip of the spermatophore to bear on the attacment point by closing round the genital segment in a manner which is controlled by the spines of that segment. The anterior hyaline coupler is not physically attached to the urosome by cement. Following fertilization, the anterior hyaline coupler and the empty spermatophore are detached, leaving the posterior coupler cemented to the second urosome segment.

Variations in length (from the top of the head to the base of the caudal rami) of Centropages typicus females (black color), males (white color) and copepodid stages V and IV (hatching) in the Delaware Bay (NW Atlantic Ocean).
Compare the length variations with the temperature variations during 1931 and 1932 (p. 10, Fig.2)
Nota: Deevey (p.21) estimates the succession of at least five or six generations produced by year. There were several rapidly developing generations during the warmer months.
Species Centropages typicus - Distribution map 6issued from : G.B. Deevey in Bull. Bingham Oceanogr. Coll., 1960 (2). [p.10, Fig.2].
Average surface temperatures at the stations in and outside Delaware Bay (NW Atlantic) from 1931 through November 1932.
The surface temperature range in the Bay varied from less than 2°C in the winter to 24° or 25°C in the summer, and more extreme than that outside the Bay, where temperatures ranged from over 2°C to approximately 22°C, but the cycles varied considerably from year to year (see p.10, figure 2). Salinity outside the Bay varied from a minimum of 30 p.1000 to a maximum of 32.88 p.1000. In the Bay it ranged from 22.8 - 32.25 p.1000. Thus the salinity was over 30 p.1000 at the stations outside the Bay while the range at the mouth of the Bay anda t the stations inside was such as to exlude ordinarily from the Bay some of the neritic species common in the outside waters.

A: abundance of stages; B: size-groups of adult females; C: suggested interpretation.
After Digby, the data are not sufficient to separate all generations, but the general similarity between the fragmentary picture obtained suggest the occurrence and course of generations to be somewhat similar to Temora longicornis and Acartia clausi.

Abundance of Centropages typicus in the Gulf of Maine/Georges Bank region in relation to environmental characteristics.
Upper: surface temperature, lower left: temperature and chlorophyll-a surface concentration; lower right: surface temperature and salinity.
Abundances are vertical averages over the upper 200 m in Log10 (ind. per m3).

Nota: The highest abundances are found between 14 and 18°C and lowest abundances occurred < 7°C. This temperature preference results in a seasonal peak in October to November, shortly after the temperature in the upper layers reaches its maximum of 16-17°C and decreases in December as temperatures decline to 8-10°C. From MARMAP/ECOMON data set no clear relationship between C. typicus and chlorophyll concentration or salinity was found. This species is somehow able to thrive during the warm season in a relatively low-food environment (< 1 mg Chl. per m3 from summer to winter except at the subsurface maximum layer, where concentrations can reach up to 1.5 mg Chl. per m3). This adaptation suggests a life-history that is different from the cold water species in the region, including Calanus finmarchicus, Pseudocalanus sp., Temora sp., which have peak abundances following the spring phytoplankton bloom.
In this study, the results confimed that cannibalism is a possible constraint controlling the abundances on Georges Bank.

Habit (after Rose, 1957; modified), range of prosome length in situ (Halsband-Lenk, partly unpublished) (see fig.8, A, B, C) and geographical distribution in the Atlantic and adjacent seas of Centropages typicus and Centropages hamatus (a).
The target is the temperature impact on reproduction and development of two congener copepod pairs inhabiting different biogeographic regions to their geographic distribution patterns (from two stations in the North Sea, Helgoland Island and the Mediterranean Sea, Villefrance -sur-Mer).

Nota: For the authors, when results are compared with field data, a mismatch between the reproductive thermal response in the laboratory and reproduction peaks in the field became apparent. While the temperature optima of egg-laying differed considerably between Centropages hamatus and Temora longhicornis in the experiments, in the North Sea their reproduction peaks occurred simultaneously in spring at 5-10°C in situ temperature (Rijswijk & al., 1989; Halsband & Hirche, 2001);
Egg production rate was controlled by body size which in turn was related to temperature (Halsband & Hirche, 2001).
Analogously, in the Bay of Villefranche (NW Mediterranean Sea) in situ reproduction peaks of Centropages typicus and Temora stylifera coincided in autumn when females were largest (Halsband-Lenk & al., 2001), while temperature optima in the laboratory were different. There, body size appeared to be less influenced by temperature, evenjtually due to the narrow annual temperature range. This was different from Centropages typicus in the Gulf of Naples, where maximal egg production rates were recorded in spring (Ianora & Buttino, 1990). Possibly, autumn temperatures are still high in that shallower region to favour high reproduction rates in this species.
However, specific temperature preferences of individualsn seem to be overridden by body-size-related reproductive potential at sea. Body-size is negatively related to telmperature and consequently, the bigger specimens of Temora longicornis and temora stylifera. Weight specific egg production eliminated size differences and was similar among congeners. The values were lower than those reviewed by Kiørboe and Sabatini (1995).

The comparison of centropages typicus in two different temperature regimes shows that the species is eurytherm and could shift its tolerance range dynamically to the temperature window of a specific environment. Thus, this species is most independant of temperature and could establish a wide distribution in the North and Middle Atlantic and adjacent seas. The shift of tolerance towards lower temperatures in the North Sea indicates adaptation and temperature compensation. In how far this shift is genitically fixed, along a latitudinal temperature gradient needs further investigation (see: Hummel & al., 1997; Dahloff & Rank, 2000).
Regarding the congeners in the North Sea, they showed showed distinct female thermal tolerance in authors' experiments (Table 5) , with C. typicus favouring intermediate and C. hamatus low temperatures.
The optima of the reproductive thermal response were congruent with the temperature ranges they encounter during their successive reproduction periods in the North Sea. Both C. typicus and C. hamatus disappear regularly from the water column in winter, but overwintering strategies are different. C. hamatus produces resting eggs, which persist unfavourable conditions in the sediment (Lindley, 1990; Marcus, 1996). C. typicus depends on a recurring input from the Atlantic with the inflow of relatively warm water (Fransz & al., 1991) and thus probably overwinters in more temperate regions like the English Channel (Le Ruyet-Person & al., 1975).
Thus, the latitudinal and seasonal distribution patterns of both congeners reflect clearly the temperature limits of their survival and reproduction as revealed in the authors' experiments.

Nota: Temperature impact on embryonic duration shows at all temperatures where eggs were produced hatching was possible, except in C. typicus in the Mediterranean Sea at 2°C.
Embryonic development times decreased with increasing temperature following Belehradek functions. In few cases embryonic duration increased at higher temperatures, as at 25°C in C. hamatus and at 28°C in C. typicus in the Mediterranean Sea, where more than 70 % of nauplii hatched at all temperatures; a more variable proportion of viable nauplii was observed in C. hamatus ranging from 34 % to 89 %.
The lower temperature limit of embryonic development was 5°C in both populations. At the upper temperature range, embryonic duration was shortest at 25°C at both stations. At 28°C, hatching was retarded in Mediterranean eggs; no data were available for the north Sea (fig. 9 a, d);
A fast embryonic development seems advantageous to reduce predation pressure on motionless eggs, which increases with the time needed until hatching (Ohman, 1986). Moreover, a long non-swimming phase denotes a high risk of loss below the euphotic zone or to the sediment in shallow shelf regions.
The Belehradek curves of cold-acclimated North Sea embryos were displaced by about 5° towards lower temperatures in relation to the curves of their Mediterranean congeners.
Post-embryonic stages of C. typicus tended to develop more quickly in the Mediterranean than in the North Sea at all temperatures investigated, suggesting an influence of body size as postulated by Vidal (1980), who stated that smaller individuals have shorter stage durations than larger ones.

Belehradek functions of embryonic development at different temperatures in C. typicus and C. hamatus.

Nota: The curve of C. typicus (North Sea) corresponded to that of C. typicus (Mediterranean Sea) in autumn, while the equation derived by McLaren & al. (1989) from Atlantic specimens matched best with the author's equation from May.
Embryonic development time has been primarily attributed to egg size both on a seasonal and latitudinal scale (Corkett, 1972; Lonsdale & Levinton, 1985), with larger eggs from larger females having lower metabolic rates than smaller eggs due to lower oxygen diffusion rates. During the author's study, egg-size was almost constant throughout the study period in all species. Therefore, parental influences due to acclimatation (Landry, 1975) and heredity (Fujisawa, 1995) seem more likely to influence the embryonic thermal response in this case.

Seasonal variation of egg production of Centropages typicus in the MediterraneanSea (Villefranche-sur-Mer)

Nota: Experiments showed very similar reproductive thermal response (RTR) in November, March and May, indicating independence from season. Optimum temperature of egg production remained invariable at 20°C, only the magnitude of egg production varied seasonally, while body size was almost constant. Likely, the seasonal variability of embryonic thermal response (ETR) was not significant (see fig.9 d)

Centropages typicus and C. hamatus: Synthesis of results from incubation in a temperature gradient from 0 to 35°C.
FTT = female thermal tolerance. RTR = reproductive thermal response. ETR = embryonic thermal response.
NS = North Sea (Helgoland Island); Med = Mediterranean Sea (Villefranche-sur-Mer).

Nota: The female thermal tolerance differed between the two C. typicus populations in the North Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. While mortality rates of females were similar at upper temperatures, they were higher in the mediterranean at the lower temperature range. Optimal survival occurred at 5-10°C in the North Sea, but at 10-15°C in the mediterranean. In contrast, the reproductive thermal response was very similar in the two populations, except at 2°C, where C. typicus from (the North Sea) produced eggs, whereas C. typicus (from the Mediterranean Sea) did not. At the optimum (20°C), the larger C. typicus (North Sea) females produced more eggs: 54.5 egg female-1 day-1) than the smaller C. typicus (from the Mediterranean) : 34.1 eggs female -1 day-1. On a weight-specific base, egg production was similar in both populations with a slightly higher maximum of C. typicus (mediterranean).
The lower temperature limit of embryonic development was 5°C in both populations, although females were able to produce eggs at 2°C in the North Sea.
The thermal tolerance ranges were rather similar in all parameters considered. However, in some cases, a slight decrease of tolerance was observed in subsequent life phases, i.e. in T. stylifera whose temperature range was wider for female survival than for reproduction and even narrower for embryonic development.
Heat death occurred in T. longicornis, except T. stylifera, at 30°C or below, indicating that this temperature represents a threshold beyond which a selective measure is necessary to ascertain survival, e.g. the production of heat shock proteins reported for various marine organisms (Hofmann, 1999). Depression of development rate (i.e. increasing development time) as an expression of physiological inefficiency at the upper end of a species' thermal range (reported for embryos of Acartia clausi, Temora stylifera, Centropages chierchiae; Bernard, 1971; Landry, 1975). The authors observed prolonged embryonic duration at 25°C or above, both in the North Sea (Centropages hamatus) and in the Mediterranean (Centropages typicus).
Cold death occurred below 5°C in warm-acclimated individuals in the Mediterranean . The lower temperature limit of the boreal species was missed during the authors' study and may be around the freezing point of seawater.

Nota: Prosome length of females used in experiments showed little variability within species in comparison to the range of prosome length compiled from different seasons and locations (see in fig. 1).
Prosome length of C. typicus (North Sea) ranged from 971.1 to 1415.9 µm (mean: 1158.9 ±83.6 µm). Specimens of C. typicus (mediterranean) were smaller, ranging from 921.8 to 1174.0 (mean: 1036.7 ±61.5 µm)
Body size of C. hamatus was between 793.1 and 1146.8 µm (mean: 944.6 ±79.5 µm).
Size differenvces between experiments were significant only in C. typicus (mediterranean) and C. hamatus; in both cases, females were greater at 15°C than at 10°C (p <0.0001).

According to Østvedt (1955) this species is regarded as a typically temperate form, and the northern limit of its common occurrence is probably the Faroe-Shetland Channel. A single specimen was taken in June at Weather ship M (Norwegian Sea). Pipe and Coombs (1980) note this species by 60°N, 07°W in the Wyville Thomson Ridge at depths between 0 and 70 m., owed to the North Atlantic Drift water.

After Norrbin (1992, p.6) this species is uncommon so far north at Hakøybotn, Norway (69°30'N), found mainly during summer and disappears during winter.
Krause (1978) found this spcies in the North Sea brought from Atlantic water with high salinity, he reported a positivr correlation between the abundance and sea surface salinity.
First occurrence in SE Pacific (N Chile) by Hidalgo & al. (2010).

Gaudy (1971 a) shows a relation between the size and the length of the antennula, linked with the water density in the Gulf of Marseille, although others hypothesis are also possible. In 2009, Dvoretskii & Dvoretskii (2009) observe the same variation for Oithona similis in the White Sea.

For C. Razouls (1974, p.66), if the concentration of adults does not affect the duration of development of the generation to which it gave birth, it can play a role in the time interval between sexual maturity and the time of mating.
It is possible to have an order of magnitude of the time taken by a Copepod to explore a given volume. We can estimate the average speed (v) of C. typicus at 1 cm/sec and the radius of the sphere of action (s) at 2 mm. If we assume that the individual moves at random, the explored volume is equal to π s2 v. We will apply by analogy the calculation model used in the kinetic theory of gases.
The average value of the space traveled between two meetings is the average free path L determined by Clausius' formula:
L = 3/4 1 /(n π s2)
The time t necessary to cover the distance L is then: t = 1/v
For a concentration of one adult per m3, the value of t is 69 days.
For a concentration of two adults per m3 (the sex ratio being equal to 1), we find a value of t close to 1 month.
For a concentration of 20 per m3, t is close to 3 days. We can see that the rate of adults can be taken into account especially in the case of the last annual generation numerically quite weakly represented.
From and below the threshold of 4 individuals per m3, the possibilities of reproduction become very low, and we would be in the presence of a pseudo-population. The first annual generation of February-March could, in this case, have a different origin and not come from the previous one.
Only experimentation and a better knowledge of the values ​​of the concentrations as a function of chorological factors will be able to specify the importance of this hypothesis on the population dynamics.
If in the Mediterranean the two congeneric species C. typicus and C. hamatus hardly compete with each other, because of the very great rarity of C. hamatus, introduced by the surface current of Gibraltar of salinity lower than that of the Mediterranean, it is surely not the same in the North Atlantic. If the nutritional factors are probably the same for the two species, their competition would be to be sought in the hydological factors and in a better knowledge of their metabolism and consequently of the knowledge of their genome.
According to Chaouadi & Hafferssas (2018, p.926) the species is present in all samples between 0 and 100 m (2012-2013) on the Algerian coast near Algiers (stations near Sidi Fredj) with an average abundance 14.6 ± 2.6 ind/m3. The maximum concentrations (24.6 ind/m3) are observed in spring and the minimum (5.34 ind/m3) in winter. During the fall the values ​​were relatively constant (11 to 14 ind/m3). Near the Habibas Islands (Alboran Sea) the maximum value is noted during the spring (7.6 to 11.1 ind/m3) but becomes rare during the summer, the maximum not exceeding 3 ind/m3.

For Kouwenberg & Razouls (1990) a study of the communities observed in 1957-1964 compared to those of 1986-1988 in the Gulf of Lion (NW Mediterranean) reveals a change in the composition of copepod species, in favor of Clausocalanus spp. This modification is in correlation with a significant change in the NW sector winds (Tramontane) induced by the existence of the depression in the Gulf of Genoa which only lasts occasionally. The summer of 1974 seems to be the critical date for this phenomenon of climate change on a larger scale, resulting in a currentological change in the Gulf of Lion and a lesser mixing of waters during the winter period, if not a very slight warming of the surface waters, which will prove larger in 2018 and 2019.

According to Lakkis (1998, p.2,6) this species is rare in the Levant Sea (E Mediterranean Sea) and should be an indicator of the Atlantic current in the Mediterranean Sea. Terbiyik Kurt & Polat (2013 , p.1172 do not observe this species during the seasoonal abundance of copepods in the Iskenderum Bay (south Turkey); For Moraitou-Apostolopoulou (1985, p.315) the species very abundant in the western Mediterranean Sea, progressively diminishes to the east but is found in very large numbers in the north of the Aegean Sea
After us, El-Sherif & Aboul Ezz (2000) has noted for the first time this species in the south of the Gulf of Suez.

For Blanco-Bercial & al., 2014 (p.6), in light of both morphological and molecular data, there is significant doubt about the validity of the distrinction of C. chierchiae Giesbrecht, 1889 from C. typicus Krôyer, 1849.

For Barton & al. (2013, p.530, Table 1) this species belongs to the feeding mode, mixing 'ambush' and 'cruising'; the separation between the two feeding modes are gradual (the separation between 'feeding current' (hovering) and 'cruising'). A neutrally buoyant zooplankter that beats its feeding appendages (scraping particles) will cruise through water, while a negatively buoyant individual that beats the appendages in the same way will produce a feeding current. Some species may switch between between ambush feeding [rather carnivory or omnivory] and feeding-current or cruise feeding.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 4 corresponding to small filter feeding herbivorous and mixed feeding omnivorous (mostly broadcasters).
