Distribution of several species of Euchirella in the Tasman Sea and around New Zealand.
Nota: Euchirella indica (= Euchirella massinensis indica). |
| | | | Loc: | | | South Africa (E), G. of Guinea, Cape Verde Is., off Morocco-Mauritania, Canary Is., Brazil S, off Amazon, Caribbean Sea, G. of Mexico, Florida, Sargasso Sea, Station "S" (32°10'N, 64°30'W), Bay of Biscay, Azores, S Iceland, off W Ireland, Faroe Is., North Sea, Mediterranean Sea, G. of Aden, Arabian Sea, Maldive Is., Natal, Indian Ocean equatorial, Philippines, China Seas (East China Sea, South China Sea) , Japan (Izu), Pacif. (tropical), Pacif. (central N subtropical), Charlotte Is., Vancouver Is., off California, W Baja California, New Zealand, off Peru, Pacif. (SE tropical), off Juan Fernandez Is., Chile (N-S).
Type locality: Norwegian Sea. | | | | N: | 50 | | | | Lg.: | | | (1) F: 6,1; (7) F: 7-6,6; (14) F: 5,9-4,7; (37) F: 7,1-4,7; M: 6,1-4,8; (38) F: 6,7; (41) F: 6,15; (56) F: 6,07; (73) F: 6,39; 6,34; (92) F: 6,13-5,95; (110) F: 6,3; (137) F: 6,7-6,1; M: 6,1-5,9; (199) F: 6,56-5,76; (235) F: 6,17-5,58; M: 5,08; (1257) F: 5,95-6,20; {F: 4,70-7,10; M: 4,80-6,10}
The mean female size is 6.143 mm (n = 21; SD = 0.6129), and the mean size male is 5.596 mm (n = 5; SD = 0.06124). The size ratio (male : female) is 0.91. | | | | Rem.: | epi-bathypelagic. Sargasso Sea: 500-1000 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, station "S");
For Vervoort (1949, p.35, 36) the species resembles E. galeata, but in dorsal view the shape of the head is distinctly triangular; in lateral aspect a distinct and high crest distinctly protudes forwards.
According to Morris (1970, p.2306) this species is the first record from the open waters of the subtropical North Pacific.
