After Grice (1963, p.176) Bowman has pointed out to him that the change in spelling of ethiopica to aethiopica by Giesbrecht & Schmeil (1898) has no justification. For C.B. Wilson (1950, p.180) in the Albatrosscollections the species is well distributed but nowhere abundant except off the west coast of Peru in a surface tow. The characteristic dark color of the appendages remains even after long preservation.
After Ponomareva & Suslyayev (1980, p.196) the average rates of movement is 2.8-57.6 m/hr.
After Ehrhardt (1967, p.888, 893) the species is found in the southwest Tyrrhenian Sea in water salinity between 37.76-38.14 p.1000 (mainly between 37.76- 37.80). For Moraitou-Apostolopoulou (1985, p.314) this species is found in large numbers in the north Aegean Sea.
Timonin (1971, p.282) considers the trophic interrelations in the equatorial and tropical Indian Ocean, and divides the plankters into 6 trophic groups from the litterature and the results of studies of mouth-parts structure and intestine content. This species is a piercing and sucking carnivorous.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 2 corresponding to small ambush feeding carnivorous.
