Remarks

epipelagic.
This species resembles Oncaea tenella (Sars, 1916).
Depth from 50-500 m.

Spinoncaea ivlevi "elongate form": Böttger-Schnack, 2003 (p.204, figs.F).

For Malt (1982, p.187) the specimens from the South Celtic Sea differ from Shmeleva’s descriptions in a few minor details in the possession of 3 terminal setae in association with the spine on the caudal rami rather 2 , the possession of an extra row of spinules on both the distal spine on the 2 nd segment of the female mxp and the terminal claw. There are also small differences in the lengths of the terminal exopodite spines.

I donÂ´t agree with the above remark "This species resembles O. tenella Sars".Â What was the basis for this statement ? Spinoncaea species are clearly different from O. tenella Sars, which in turn is related to O. zernovi and related forms (cf. BÃ¶ttger-Schnack 2002).
