Md exopod-5 segmented, setal formula 1, 1, 1, 1, 2; endopod 2-segmeted, endopod 1 without setae, endopod 2 with 4 setae.

Forehead in dorsal view almost triangular with apex smoothly rounded and less produced than in female.
Rostrum elongated, ending in 2 fine filaments.
Head and pedigerous segment 1 fused, 4th and 5th partly fused.
Urosme 5-segmented, anal segment and caudal rami fused; genital segment slightly produced on left side, with distinct genital operculum; left caudal ramus larger than the right.
A2, Md palp, Mx1, Mx2 and Mxp slightly reduced, much smaller than in female, but resemble the latter in details of arrangement. Ganthobase of Md degenerated, with single spinelike tooth.
P5 both left and right uniramous, 4-segmented; left ramus long, distal segment tipped with hook-like spine; right ramus short, 3rd and 4th incompletely separated, distal segment tipped with seta.

On anal segment, 4 pores were revealed in 4 specimens, 5 pores in 1 specimen, localization of the 5th pore is indicated by open circle.

Carte de distribution de Pareucalanus smithae par zones géographiques
Espèce Pareucalanus smithae - Carte de distribution 2issued from : I. Yu. Prusova in Mar. Ecol. J., 2007, 6 (3). [p.65].
Spatial distribution of P. smithae in the Arabian Sea.

Nota: The species is found in all investigated area (in 14 of 19 sampled stations) in the depth range 0-1300 m. The highest abundance values (38.9 and 22.4 ind. per 100 m3) in the water column were recorded nearshore in the upwelling area.
In general 60 % of the P. smithae population in the investagated layers were found deeper than 100 m.
Loc:
NW Indian (Arabian Sea)
N: 1
Lg.:
(990) F: 5,0-5,6; M: 3,8-4,3; {F: 5,0-5,6; M: 3,8-4,3}
Rem.: Depth range: 0-1300 m. For Prusova (2007, p.65) , nearly 60 % of the P. smithae population in the investigated layers were found deeper than 100 m (i.e. , within the oxygen minimum zone that occurs in the Arabian Sea in the depth range from 50-100 m to 1000-1250 m and is characterized by extremely low dissolved oxygen concentrations, far less than 1 ml/l). On the basis of vertical distribution patterns, a wide range of tolerance to oxygen concentrations in P. smithae can be assumed.
P. smithae is similar to P. attenuatus and P. sewelli in setation of Mxp with 2 setae on the basis, whereas other species of this genus (P. langae and P. parki have 4 setae.P. smithae can be distinguished from P. attenuatus and P. sewelli by more expressed anteriorly and not curved forhead, more narrow and elongated shape of seminal receptacles in lateral view,, and proportional lengths of setae on Mxp endopodal segment 2, the ratio of these setae length in P. smithae 1 : 1.2 : 1.5 : 1.7 ; in P. attenuarus 1 : 1.7 : 2.7 : 4.1; in P. sewelli 1 : 1.8 : 3.5 : 4.5. Additionally, P. smithae differs from P. attenuatus and P. sewelli in pore pattern according to the Fleminger's (1973) method (Table 1).
