| | | | | | Ref.: | | | Bradford-Grieve & al?, 2017 (p.148, Descr. F, M, figs. F, M, phylogeny) | Issued from : J.M. Bradford-Grieve, L. Blanco-Bercial & G.A. Boxshall in Zootaxa, 2017, 4229 (1). [p.149, Fig.101]. Female (from 27.133°N, 138.233°E): A-B, habitus (dorsal and lateral, respectively); C, rostrum (lateral); D, left A1; E, P1 (posterior view). Scale bars: 1.0 mm on all figures. Nota: - Forehead in dorsal view with low projection dorsal to base of rostrum. - In lateral view, posterior corners pf pediger 5 rounded. - Genital double-somite symmetrical in dorsal view, bulbous, about as long as wide; in lateral view bulging both ventrally and dorsally, and is much deeper than following somite. - A1 extending beyond caudal rami by at least 7 segments (segments XXI-XXVIII broken off). Segments I-V each with dorsal surface hair sensillum and adjacent macula cribrosa. |
Issued from : J.M. Bradford-Grieve, L. Blanco-Bercial & G.A. Boxshall in Zootaxa, 2017, 4229 (1). [p.150, Fig.102]. Female : A, A1 ancestral segments I-XII (hs = hair sensillum; mc = macula cribrosa); B, A1 ancestral segments XIII-XVI; C, A1 ancestral segments XVII-XX; D, A2; E, Md palp; F, distal part of Md gnathobase; G, Mx1. Scale bars: 1.0 mm (A-E); 0.1 mm on remaining figures. Nota: - A2 exopod ancestral segment IV very short seta not extending beyond segment V. - Mx1 praecoxal arthrite with 13 setae including 2 on posterior surface and 1 longer and 1 smaller seta on anterior surface; coxal endite without setae; basal endites 1 and 2 with 2 setae each; endopod segments with 1, 1, 4+1 small anterior surface seta; basal exite with 1 vestigial seta; epipodite with 7 long and 2 very small setae.

Issued from : J.M. Bradford-Grieve, L. Blanco-Bercial & G.A. Boxshall in Zootaxa, 2017, 4229 (1). [p.151, Fig.103]. Female: A, Mxp; B, P2 (anterior view); C, P3 (anterior view); D, P4 (anterior view); E, P5 (anterior view). Scale bar: 1.0 mm on all figures. Nota: - Mxp syncoxal endite 4 longest seta broken off- probably extending as far as distal basal seta as in male; endopod segments 2-6 with 4 (subequal), 1, 1, 1 (no outer border seta but 1 macula cribrosa), 4 setae (2 large and 2 small, of which 1 on outer border), respectively

Issued from : J.M. Bradford-Grieve, L. Blanco-Bercial & G.A. Boxshall in Zootaxa, 2017, 4229 (1). [p.152, Fig.104]. Male (from 20.933°N, 138.533°E): A-B, habitus (dorsal and lateral, respectively); C, forehead (lateral); D, right A1 ancestral segmentss I-XII; E, right A1 ancestral segments XIII-XVI. Scale bars: 1.0 mm ( on all figures). Nota: - Forehead similar to that of female. - In lateral view, posterior corners of pediger 5 rounded. - Urosomite II length 0.8 times its width in dorsal view. Urosomite II is 1,5 times as long as urosomite III. - A1 not entire; left A1 absent; right A1 first ancestral segments remaining, ancestral segments IX-XI fused and XIV-XV fused on right.

Morphological characters after identification key of Elenacalanus females and males. Compare to other species of genus. 1 - Head without crest. 2 - Mx1 basal endite 2 with 2 (in female) or 1 setae (reduced in male). 3 - Md basis proximalmost seta placed approximately at midlength of inner border. 4 - Female P1 exopod segment , proximal outer spine extends beyond base of distal outer spine; male P5 left exopod segment 2 specialised seta with 2 equal, short setulose lashes.

Distribution map of Elenacalanus tageae by geographical zones
|
| | | Loc: | | | NW Pacif. (SE Japan).
Type locality : 26.441° N, 139.037° E. | | | N: | 1 | | | Lg.: | | | (1316) F: 13,4; M: 12,7; {F: 13,4; M: 12,7} | | | Rem.: | Bathypelagic. For Bradford-Grieve & al. (2017, p.149) the female resemble E. eltaninae, differing only the longer proximal outer spine on P1 exopodal segment 3 (extends beyond base of distal outer spine in E. tageae but short of this spine in E. eltaninae); also the main difference is the the male P5 left specialised seta on exopodal segment 2: in E. tageae it is bifurcate with each short lash approximately equal in length while in E. eltaninae this seta is composed of a large rounded outer lobe and elongate inner lash. | | | Last update : 19/06/2023 | |
