Female (from N Arabian Sea): E, Mx1.
Nota: The specimenn differs from that figured by Sars in that the 2nd basal segment of Mx1 on one side bears only 2 setae, whereas Sars (1925, fig.6) shows it as having 3. A gland opens on the anterior margin of inner lobe not far from the origin of the most anterior spine.

Nota: Forehead (laterally) broadly round, with rostrum in the form of a round tubercle, without filaments


Species Euaugaptilus angustus - Plate 7 of morphological figuresissued from : T. Park in Biology of the Antarctic Seas, XXII. Antarct. Res. Ser., Washington, 58. [p.29, Fig.20].
Female: a-e, P1 to P5 (anterior views).


Species Euaugaptilus angustus - Plate 8 of morphological figuresissued from : H. Matsuura, S. Nishida & J. Nishikawa in Deep-Sea Res. II, 2010, 57. [p.2106, Fig.10, g-h].
From Sulu Sea: g, SEM image of button setae on Mx2 and Mxp; h, SEM image of mandible blade.
Nota: Mandible blade like a curved needle and with 4 spiniform teeth (Type-I).


Species Euaugaptilus angustus - Plate 9 of morphological figuresissued from : J.B.L. Matthews in Bull. Br. Mus. (Nat. Hist.) Zool., 1972, 24 (1). [p.25, Table 2].
Differences in setation of Mx1, according to previous descriptions.
Nota: Sewell mentioned 2 setae present on one side but drew 3, presumably from the other side.

Loc:
sub-Antarct. (S Australia), South Africa (E), off S Liberia, off NW Cape Verde Is., Canary Is., off Morocco-Mauritania, off Madeira, off Portugal, off W Cape Finisterre, Azores, off W Ireland, off Bermuda: Station ‘’ S’’ (32°10’N, 64°30’W), Sargasso Sea, Medit. (W Basin), Arabian Sea, Laquedive Is., Indian, Bay of Bengal, Andaman Sea (Batten Island), Celebes and Sulu Seas, China Seas (East China Sea), off Taiwan, Taiwan (N: Mienhua Canyon), Japan (Izu), Pacif. (tropical), off N Hawaii, Vancouver Is., SW Galapagos, N Easter Is., off Peru.
N: 22
Lg.:
(1) F: 7,9; (16) F: 6,1; (48) F: 4,66; (68) F: 7,83-5,91; M: 5,48; (69) F: 6,47; (199) F: 5,76-5,44; M: 5,12; {F: 4,66-7,90; M: 5,12-5,48}
Rem.: Meso-bathypelagic. Known to occur between 600 and 1400 m depth after Matthews (1972, p.27).
Sampling depth (sub-Antarct.) : 0-1000 m. Overall Depth Range in Sargasso Sea: 500-2000 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S");
For Park (1993, p.29) this species can be recognized by the round tubercular rostral process without filaments, the long A1, the presence of setae on each of the 8 exopodal segments of the A2, the absence of a basal spine on the mandibular gnathobase, and the presence of only 1 outer spine on the 3rd exopodal segment of P1.
For Itoh (1970 a, fig.2, from co-ordonates) the Itoh's index value from mandibular gnathobase = 2150.

In ''squamatus" Group after Matthews (1972, p.64) {See remarks in Euaugaptilus genus}.
