Distribution map of Spinocalanus horridus by geographical zones
Loc:
Antarct. (SW Atlant., SW Pacif.), sub-Antarct. (South Georgia), off SW Ascension Is., E Atlant. (11°N-25°S), G. of Mexico, Greenland (in Richter, 1994, p.14), Fram Strait, Spitsbergen, Arct. (Nansen Basin, Amundsen Basin, Makarov Basin, Canadian abyssal plain, Beaufort Sea, Canada Basin, W Baffin Bay), off British Columbia, China Seas (South China Sea), Japan, Pacif. (NE & NW)
N: 17
Lg.:
(10) F: 2,35; (13) F: 3-1,95; M: 2,9-2; (35) F: 2,45; 2,3; (55) F: 2,47; (88) F: 2,36-2,32; (1001) F: 2,42-2,18; (1252) F: 2,33-2,50; {F: 1,95-3,00; M: 2,00-2,90}.
(1252) F: Pr/Ur = 2,0-2,8.
Rem.: bathy-abyssopelagic.
Sampling depth (Antarct.) : 1000-2000 m. 800-1000 m (in Bode & al., 2017 at 11°N-25°S).
Damkaer and Brodsky & al. do not agree on the synonymies (Cf. S. dorsispinosus Male & S. longispinus Female).
According to Vervoort (1946, p.154) this species is synonym of Spinocalanus spinosus.
Bode & al. (2017, p.612) underline that the high morphological similarities explain, why species initially described as S. stellatus and S. longispinus are currently all synonymised with S. horridus.
