Vertical distribution abundance of copepodite stages C3 to C6 of Aetideopsis spp. and Chiridius obtusifrons. +: No occurrence; solid line depicts bottom profile (right axis); station 853 over the Yermak Plateau (81°22'N, 6°52'E) is separated from the other stations on the transect; other stations between East Greenland Current, the Fram Strait and the West Spitsbergen Current, into south return Atlantic Current (77°46'N-79°36'N, 6°20'E-7°29'W).

Species considered as arctic-boreal.
The locality records south of Chile, in the southern part of the Bay of Biscay (but possible taking into account the mesopelagic distribution of this species) and in the Mediterranean are doubtful and require confirmation.
The locality record in the NE Atlantic: from 30 to 60° N (in Grice & Hulsemann, 1965, p.223) is not specified. | | | Last update : 26/01/2017 | |
