Distribution map of Corycaeus (Agetus) typicus by geographical zones
Species Corycaeus (Agetus) typicus - Distribution map 3issued from : A.A. Shmeleva in Bull. Inst. Oceanogr., Monaco, 1965, 65 (n°1351). [Table 6: 45]. Corycaeus typicus (from South Adriatic).
Dimensions, volume and Weight wet. Means for 50-60 specimens. Volume and weight calculated by geometrical method. Assumed that the specific gravity of the Copepod body is equal to 1, then the volume will correspond to the weight.

* Total body length in lateral view
Rem.: epi-mesopelagic, 2000-3000 m (off Malta). 0-616 m at Station T-1 (E Tori Is., E middle japan) from Furuhashi (1966 a).
For Boxshall & Halsey (2004, p.491) the subgenus (Dahl, 1912) is considered as full generic status pending phylogenetic revision of the whole family at the generic level.
This essentially tropical species does not seem to go past the 40st degree latitude north or south.
Its presence in the eastern Bering Sea is surprising.
After Regner (1985, p.42) this species is widely distributed. Its quantities were highest of all the species of Corycaeus genus determined in middle Adriatic Sea (Dalmatian coast) during 1970 to 1974. Its fequency increased going towards the open sea during the warmer part of the year.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 2 corresponding to small ambush feeding carnivorous.
