Plate 1 issued from : Z. Uysal & A. Shmeleva in Hydrobiologia, 2002, 470. [p.47, Fig.2]. Female (from Iskenderum Bay, Levantine Basin): a, habitus (dorsal); b, idem (lateral); c, urosome (lateral, left side); d, idem (dorsal); e, rostrum (frontal view); g, A1 (5 segments only); h, A2; i, Md; j, Mx1; k, Mx2; l, Mxp. Nota: Forehead with a median crest. Head and 1st thoracic segment fused, 4th and 5th fused producing a triangular expansion which is pointed at the apex. Proportional lengths of rrosomal segments 28:16:15:8:10 = 100. Distal part of spermatheca of the genital segment extend dorsally and widen from the lateral view like a sack. Caudal rami 1.9 times longer than wide.The terminal segment of Mx2 has 3 longer vermiform and 5 amalliform sensory filaments
Plate 2 issued from : Z. Uysal & A. Shmeleva in Hydrobiologia, 2002, 470. [p.48, Fig.2]. Female: m, P1; n, P2; o, P5. Nota: P5 with rudimentary endopod, furnished with 1 apical spine.
Distribution
NZ: 1
Distribution map of Scaphocalanus emine by geographical zones
inshore. For Uysal & Shmeleva (2002, p.47-48) this species resembles S. affinis, but differs ot the latter by having a smaller median crest on the forehead and the presence of a rudimentary endopod. The originality of construction of the P1 and P5 distinguish the species from other Scaphocalanus species.
