 issued from : R.B.S. Sewell in The John Murray Expedition, 1933-34, Scientific Reports, VIII (1), 1947. [p.66, Fig.11]. Female (from Arabian Sea): A, habitus (leteral right side); B, A2; C, Mx1; D, basal segment of Mxp; E, P1; F, P4. Nota: Proportional lengths of the prosome and urosome as 80 : 20. - The proportional lengths of the urosome as : 37 : 19 : 17 : 11 :1 6 = 100. - The genital and the two following segments are each prrovided with a row of spines (this row is composed of stout triangular spines across the dorsal aspect, but on the sides and below the size of the spines is much reduced. - A1 24-segmented, segments 8 and 9 fused (in Wolfenden, 1905, p.7, there are 23 segments because segments 24 and 25 fused). - In Mxp the lamella on the 1st basal segment is rounded at its distal end and is not produced in a hook-like process. - In the swimming legs there are tufts of fine hairs on the anterior aspect of the distal segment of the endopod. - Secretory glands are present on all three segments of the exopod of P2 to P4, and these open by pores situated close to the base of the marginal spine at the distal external angle.

Distribution map of Gaetanus antarcticus by geographical zones

Chart showing the geographical distribution (white circle) in the seas surrounding the Antarctic continent.
Nota: In this chart the area frequented by whaling vessels has been hatched. The Antarctic circle (66°.5 S) has been drawn as a broken line. The numbers I to VI refer to the sectors into which the Antarctic seas are divided according to Mackintosh (1942) (after Vervoort, 1951). |
| | | | Loc: | | | Antarct. (Croker Passage, Peninsula, Weddell Sea, SW Atlant., Indian, SW - S - SE Pacif., Mc Murdo), Magallones region (in Arcos, 1976, with doubt), sub-Antarct. (SE Pacif.), off E Trindade Is., Brazil, Argentina, off Morocco-Mauritania, Portugal, G. of Oman, Arabian Sea, Indian, ? Japan (Izu), Marquesas Is., Vancouver Is., off Juan Fernandez Is., Chile.
Type locality: 64°18'S, 90°27'E | | | | N: | 23 | | | | Lg.: | | | (10) F: 5,9; (10’) F: 8; (11) F: 8,25-7,6; (20) F: 9,08-7,91; (25) F: 8,78-8,4; (37) F: 9,08-7,6; (202) F: 8-8,48; {F: 5,90-9,08} | | | | Rem.: | meso & bathypelagic.
Sampling depth (Antarct., sub-Antarct.) : 600-1000+ m.
The strong size differences observed by Wolfenden (1911) correspond to Antarctic localities (10') and S. Atlantic (10).
For Sewell (1947, p.67) Its occurrence in the deep water at the northern end of the Arabian Sea and in the Gulf of Oman is surprising. This species is thought to be transported from Antarctica to the north by intermediate or deep currents. | | | Last update : 24/01/2017 | |
