| | | | | | | Ref.: | | | Grygier & Ohtsuka, 2008 (p.470, Descr. F, figs.F, Rem.) |  issued from : M.J. Grygier & S. Ohtsuka in Zool. J. Linnean Soc., 2008, 152. [p.471, Fig.7, A]. Female (paratype from Ishigaki Island): A, habitus (lateral; some legs removed). Scale bar = 1.0 mm. Nota: - Spherical spots of red pigment throught body. - Cuticular ridges of cephalothorax sporadically spinulose but lacking side branches, discontinuous in anterior ventrolateral region; reticulation uniform in size, enclosing clusters of small, cuneiform cuticular figures. - Posterior dorsal margin of genital compound somite and penultimate segment each slightly produced into 6 flanges bearing minute spinules of same size and density as those over rest of dorsum. Posteroventral part of genital compound somite produced into apron-like flap.

 issued from : M.J. Grygier & S. Ohtsuka in Zool. J. Linnean Soc., 2008, 152. [p.499, Fig.29]. Female: Dorsal and lateral pore and pit seta patterns, from rear of cephalothorax through genital compound somite. Symbols: dots (three sizes) = pores; larger circles = pits of pit setae. Pattern based on SEM and light microscopical examination.

Scale bar = 0.500 mm. Nota: In lateral view, egg mass appearing bigger than copepod itself (e.g. 2.07 mm long, 1.28 mm high), but width slightly less than half that of cephalothorax (within which all eggs were formerly stored). Mean egg diameter 0.0344 mm (n = 15).

 Issued from : M.J. Grygier & S. Ohtsuka in Zool. J. Linnean Soc., 2008, 152. [p.493]. Key to the Ryukyu species of the Maemonstrilla hyottoko species-Group. M. polka Female: 1 - Cuticle of cephalothorax, A1, lateral sides of trunk, dorsum telson, and caudal rami reticulated; outer faces of P1-P4 and dorsum of free pedigers, genital compound somite, and penultimate somite spinulose. Cephalothoracic reticulations comprising ridges with abundant or sparse spinules; simple or complex cuticular ornamentation within at least some meshes. 2 - Oral papilla large and conical, directed ventrally. Genital compound somite distinctly divided transverse ridge. 3 - P1-P4 each with two low, rounded lobes on outer proximal part of coxa; rest of outer face of coxa with fields of minute spinules separated by bare lanes. Cephalothoracic reticulations lacking side branches but bearing sporadic or sparse spinules; meshes uniformly polygonal over most surface. 4 - Proximal coxal lobes of P1-P4 bearing spinules only slightly larger than those on rest of coxa. Spherical pigmented spots (red when fresh) found throughout body. Posterroventral part of genital compound somite produced into apron-like flap; posterodorsal margins of this somite and penultimate somite not denticulate. Body length > 2mm [after 3 ovigerous females collected].
Compare with M. simplex, M. hyottoko, M. polka, M. spinicoxa.
