Distribution map of Oncaea pumilis by geographical zones
|
| | | | | | | | | | Loc: | | | Antarctic (SW Pacif.), ? E Medit. (Lebanon), Norwegian Sea, Arctic | | | | N: | 3 | | | | Lg.: | | | (675) F: 0,6-0,5; M: 0,56-0,46; (679) F: 0,52; 0,51; (697) M: 0,48; {F: 0,50-0,60; M: 0,46-0,56} | | | | Rem.: | Sampling depth (Antarct.) : 1000-2000 m.
The geographical distribution of this species is surprising.
The comparison of the male figures by Heron and those by Malt does not appear quite convincing.
For Heron & al. (1984, p.472), the male may be separated from other species by the comparatively slender genital segment (seen in lateral view), and the long anal segment and caudal ramus relative to the preceding orosomal segments. The prosomes of many specimens were abnormally expanded, prsumably deformed by internal cystic growth. | | | Last update : 27/01/2015 | |
