Monstrilla inserta A. Scott, 1909 (F) | |
| | | | | | Ref.: | | | A. Scott, 1909 (p.237, Descr.F, figs.F); Wilson, 1942 a (p.195); Grygier, 1995 a (p.68); Suarez-Morales, 2001 (p.248, Redescr.F, figs.F); 2011 (p.9); 2011 (p.9) | Issued from : A. Scott in The Copepoda of the Siboga Expedition Part I. Siboga-Expeditie XXIX a., 1909. [Pl. LVII, Figs.7-8]. Female (from off Pulu Kawassang, Paternoster Islands): 7, habitus (dorsal); 8, P5. Nota: Cephalic segment evenly rounded in the frontal portion and very slightly contracted at the distal end; it is slightly longer than the posterior part of the body. Frontal margin very narrowly rounded and slightly cleft. Abdomen 3-segmented. Genital segment sub-quadrangular in shape and traversed by a distinct suture rather in front of the middle; its length equal to twice the combined length of the next two segments; it is rather shorter than the united length of the next two segments and caudal rami. The 2nd and 3rd segments very short and nearly equal length. Caudal rami 3 times longer than the anal segment; each ramus with 1 outer marginal seta and 5 apical setae. A1 3-segmented, equal to one-third of the length of the cephalic segment. P5 rather slender and distinctly bi-lobed. The inner lobe narrower than the outer lobe and does not extend beyond the end of it; apex with 1 seta; the outer lobe with 3 setae. This species comes very near Monstrilla grandis in general appearance, and in the shape of P5. The chief difference is in the inner lobe of P5; Giesbrecht's figure shews the inner lobe of P5 M. grandis with 2 setae, instead 1 in the Siboga's specimens.

Issued from : E. Suarez-Morales in Cah. Biol. Mar., 2001, 42. [p.249, Figs.13-18]. Female (from Curaçao): 13, habitus (dorsal); 14, head (lateral); 15, right and left A1 (dorsal); 16, oral papilla (detail); 17, frontal keel-like process (detail); 18, last urosomite and caudal rami (dorsal).

Issued from : E. Suarez-Morales in Cah. Biol. Mar., 2001, 42. [p.250, Figs.19-26]. Female: 19, urosome (dorsal); 20, urosome (ventral); 21, same (lateral; setae omitted from P5); 22, P5 and bases of ovigerous spines (ventral); 23, P4 (posterior); 24, P2 (posterior); 25, P3 (anterior); 26, P5 showing complete setae. Nota: P5 biramous, noticeably elongated, separated at base. Exopodal lobe 4.8 times longer than wide, lobe armed with 3 long setae, these slightly plumose (Curaçao) or naked (type specimens), subequal in length and breadth, 1.3-2.1 times longer than bearing lobe. Endopodal lobe slender, partially fused with exopodal lobe, shorter than it, with only 1 terminal, relatively short seta, almost of same length as exopodal lobe.
