Plate 19 issued from : C. With in The Danish Ingolf-Expedition, Copepoda I, 1915, III, 4. [p.242, Text-fig. 79].
Female (from 51°00N, 11°43'W): Lateral outline of body).

Nota: In some of spexcimens the head possesses, dorsally, a conical protuberance.
Length of prosome: 2.42 mm, urosome: 0.48 mm.
The legs are scarcely different from Giesbrecht’s description. The outer margin of the 3rd exopodal segment of P1 has proximally to the middle a small incision and a glandular pore. On the anterior surface of the 3rd endoppodal segment of P2 and P3 a minute glandular pore, but in P4 none was seen. At the base of the outer spine in the exopodal segment 2, and at the base of the outer seta 1 and 3 of exopodal segment 3, glandular pores were found in P2, and in P3 and P4 at the base of the outer spine of exopodal 1. The endopodal segments 2-3, which are fused in P2, possess on the posterior surface two coronas of 8 and 6 long ; spines respectively; the endopodal segments 2 and 3 of P3 have 8 and 6 spines respectively ; the endopodal segment 2 of P4 has 6 long rather weak spines.

Male: Length of prosome: 1.89 mm, urosome: 0.37 mm. The prosome did not possess a lamelliform projection, as figured by Giesbrecht; no dorsal protuberance.
Plate 20 issued from : C. With in The Danish Ingolf-Expedition, Copepoda I, 1915, III, 4. [Pl. VII, Fig.1, a-c].
Female: a, rostrum (anterior view); b, labrum (oral view); c, lamina labialis and serrula 6-dentata.

Nota: The very short labrum and the elevation in front of it are only indistinctly separated, and the latter is placed behind the insertion of the A1; the epistoma is covered by a number of longer and shorter setae; on the labrum proper a transverse group of fairly short setae; the marginal setae are only poorly developed. The oral surface (fig.b) (fig.b) has in front 4 longer and shorter oblique groups of shorter hairs converging towards the middle, and more posteriorly, probably composed of the 3 hinder, a longitudinally placed elongated group of short hairs; in the middle at least 3 groups of very short hairs or granules. The lamina labialis is only poorly developed (fig.c); in front of it a regular granular area; the area behind the lamina and on the labial lobes not studied in details.

Female (from Pacific): 71, habitus (dorsal); 72, A2; 73, Mx1; 74, Mx2; 75, Mxp; 76, P1; 77, endopod of P1 (enlarged); 78, P1 from another specimen; 79, P2; 80, P2 from another specimen); 81, P3; 82, P4; 83, P5.

Nota: Probably fig.83 is the P5 from juvenile male and an error in the legend (p.226), or an intersex form. After the author numerpous stages of development were taken in the eastern, central, and western parts of the tropical Pacific. No adult males were obtained, althrough some of the younger stages were probably undeveloped males. See in Vervoort's (1950 b, p.83) commentaries concerning the synonymy and the redescription of this species.
Plate 29 issued from : W. Vervoort in Proc. K. ned. Akad. Wet., 1950, LIII, 1. [p.84, Fig.1].
Female (from ''Carnegie'' collection, 1°32'S, 82°16'W): a, habitus (dorsal view); b, urosome (lateral view from left side; c, left Md (mandibular palpus).

Nota: Urosome very short, 4-segmented, the 4th (anal) segment completely telescoped into the preceding. Proportional length of segments and caudal rami 44 : 19 : 15 : 4 : 18 = 100. Urosomal segments with some scattered hair-like scales of characteristic appearance.
Plate 30 issued from : W. Vervoort in Proc. K. ned. Akad. Wet., 1950, LIII, 1. [p.85, Fig.2].
Female: a, urosome (dorsal); b, same (ventral); c, head (lateral); d, A2 (posterior surface).

Nota: Genital segment ventrally with a broadly rounded genital flap, covering the orifices of 2 small, scarcely visible receptacles.

Rem.: After Vervvort (1950, p.86) Wilson's drawings of the A2, Mx1, Mx2 and Mxp all are very inaccurate with regards to the number of setae on the various lobes and segments.
Plate 31 issued from : W. Vervoort in Proc. K. ned. Akad. Wet., 1950, LIII, 1. [p.85, Fig.3].
Female: a, left Md (manducatory plate, interior surface); b, left Mx1 (posterior surface); c, left Mxp (anterior surface).

Nota: Mx1 small; 1st inner lobe elongated, carrying 6 strong, more or less plumose setiform spines and 4 smaller setae, one of which is very small and delicate; 2nd inner lobe with 1 single seta; 3rd inner lobe with 3 setae; 1st outer lobe with 9 strong, plumose setae; exopod with 5 setae; 2nd basal segment with 3 setae; endopod with 6 setae, the jointing between the endopodal joints is indistinct, but apparently there is 1 seta on the 1st, 1 on the 2nd and 4 on the 3rd (terminal ) joint.
Plate 32 issued from : W. Vervoort in Proc. K. ned. Akad. Wet., 1950, LIII, 1. [p.87, Fig.4, b].
Female: b, right Mx2 (interior surface).

Nota: Mx2 strongly developed. 1st basal segment carries 4 lobes, on the 1st lobe there are 4 setae of about equal length and 1 smaller seta, on the 2nd lobe there are 3 equal setae, on the 3rd 2 subequal setae, and on the 4th 1 strong, spinulose seta and a much smaller and shorter seta. The denticles on the last mentioned strong seta on the 4th lobe are minute. 2nd basal segment terminating into a single (5th) lobe, which carries a strong, curved, spiniform seta (this seta is much longer than the other setae, there are rather coarse denticles along the convex border, from the apex down to about half its length), in addition there are 2 muvch smaller setae on the 5th lobe. The segmentation of the endopod is very indistinct; there are 6 brush-shaped sensory appendages and 2 much longer, filiform appendages (the extremities of these sensory filaments are coverd by a mucous layer. There is no seta along the external margin of Mx2.

Female: a, left P1; b, left P2; c, left P3; d, left P4
Of all legs the posterior surface has been figured. b, c, d at the same scale; a: magnified twofold from the others.

After vervoort (1950, p.86) the figures of P3 and P4 apparently have been changed in Wilson's paper (fig.81 represents P4, fig.82 the P3.

Remarks

epi-mesopelagic.
Sampling depth (sub-Antarct.) : 250 m. Sargasso Sea: 0-500 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, station "S");
With (1915) reports the presence of a small bump dorsally on the cephalosome of certain individuals. Characteristic observed as well offshore the Algerian coast (Kerzabi, 1999, comm. pers). The specimens from Mazzocchi & al. (1995) are longer than generally reported in the literature.
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).

 Dear Nicolas,

we were wondering why Onchocalanus nudipes (who has a P5 in female , see Wilson 1942)  was included as a synonim of Phaenna spinifera since this species has been reported as not having a P5 in the female by Bradford et al.,  (1983) and in Boxshall and  Halsey (2004).

Thank you very much for your help.
 Claudia and Marianne


Answer of Claude Razouls

As I have the publication of Wilson at my disposal, I brought the necessary details in the database (see above in Phaenna spinifera Species Card). Therefore I inserted all figures of Wilson.
Thank you for your comments, it is always useful, but there was no error, otherwise always refer when possible to the original document. It is not possible to me to do all the detailed analysis for each listed species, which sometimes involves shortcuts. At times I make some changes or corrections to the figures given by the authors, but I limit the maximum in order to not denature their data. This shows that the best authors also had their lot of inaccuracies. This applies to the drawings of the authors, and also to provided geographical locations. Hence the caution to take "as is" references in Compl. Ref., and also in synonyms.
