Species Labidocera trispinosa - Distribution map 2

Map 2 issued from : G.A. Rebstock in Global change Biology, 2002, 8. [p.77, Fig.2 w].
Climatic regime shifts and decadal-scale variability in calanoid copepod populations off southern California (31°-35°N, 117°-122°W.
Cumulative sums of nonseasonal anomalies from the long-term means of copepod abundance from years 1950 to 2000.
A negative slope indicates a period of below-average anomalies; a positive slope indicates a period of above-average anomalies. Abrupt changes in slope indicate step changes. Step changes are marked with arrow (downward -pointing for decreases).
The October 1966 cruise (prior to the increase in sampling depth), March 1976 cruise (prior to the 1976-77 climatic regime shift), and October 1988 cruise (prior to the hypothesized 1989 climatic regime shift) are marked with vertical lines.

Nauplius is entrained in copepod's swimming and is accelerating toward predator. Copepod is also accelerating toward prey.
Photographs were recreated from a feeding sequence filmed at 50 frames per second using hokographic techniques (see Stewart & al., 1973). Time interval is 0.10 s.

Remarks

The presence of this species in SE of South Africa (Durban) is very doubtful.
Diagnosis for L. trispinosa in the 'darwinii' species group after Prusova & Al-Yamani (2014, p.1165) :
Females:
- 1: Urosome of 3 somites.
- 2: Genital somite asymmetrical, caudal rami of approximately equal length.
- 3: Caudal rami symmetrical, or roughly symmetrical, separate from anal somite.
- 4: Exopod of nearly symmetrical P5 with 2 or 3 terminal points, genital pore ventro-lateral.
- 5: P5 exopod with 2 terminal points, inner one larger.
- 6: 2nd urosomal somite in dorsal view with small lateral swelling on left proximally.
Males:
- 1: Urosome of 5 somites.
- 2: Prosome posterior corners asymmetrical, right corner longer or modified.
- 3: Prosome posterior corners strongly asymmetrical, with 3 prominent spiniform prongs on right, lateral-most the largest.
- 4: Lateral-most prosomal prong crescent-like in lateral view.
