Nota: Posterolateral corner of metasome in dorsal view with tip pointing inward. Mouthparts and P1 to P4 similar to Scaphocalanus major, but external spine of 1st exopod segment of P2 curved and much larger in the present species.

Distribution map of Scaphocalanus acuminatus by geographical zones
|
| | | | Loc: | | | Caribbean Sea, G. of Mexico | | | | N: | 1 | | | | Lg.: | | | (88) F: 1,92-1,84; {F: 1,84-1,92} | | | | Rem.: | bathypelagic (980-1900 m). For Park (1970, p.507) this species seems related to S. insignis Brodsky (1950) and S. elongatus A. Scott (1909). | | | Last update : 31/01/2015 | |
