Species Paraeuchaeta elongata - Plate 11 of morphological figuresissued from : A.G. Lewis & A. Ramnarine inJ. Fish. Res. Bd. Canada, 1969, 26. [p.1349, Fig.1]. As Euchaeta japonica.

Nota: The egg + N1 stage is the most bcritical part of early developement . This is followed by rge N2, N3, N4, N5 and N6 stages with the last exhibiting the highest average survival.
The egg to N2 stages are pre-feeding stages and appear to be dependent upon dissolved materials in the environment to supplement those not available or in low concentration in the deutoplasm or other stored nutrients.
The N3 to N6 stages are feeding stages and the higher survival is felt to be due, at least in part, to the nutrient supply in the sea water.
The N6, however, moults into the 1st copepodite, a change which is abrupt enough that Campbell (1934) termed it a metamorphosis. Whether or not the term is applicable is open to question but the preparation for the change may impose requirements on the stage that are not faced by the other feeding stages.

Species Paraeuchaeta elongata - Plate 21 of morphological figuresIssued from : A. Lewis in Crustaceana, 2014, 87 (10). [p.1216, Fig.9].
Paraeuchaeta elongata (Esterly, 1913): A, enlarged view of labrum and paragnath; B, confocal: ventral view from a posterior angle to show the position of the supralabral lobe relative to the labrum. The ridge just posterior to the setae is an artefact where two image frames were joined.
See: http://booksandjournals.brillonline.com/content/journals/15685403.

Nota: Relative to the body axis, the average angle of the labral-paragnath complex is + 14°; the complex faces down and forward. The anterior margin of the labrum proper is located a very short distance behind the first antenna, about 3% of the total body length. In lateral view, the labrum is narrow and clamshell-shaped hood. In ventral view, the bilobed lip is small; each of the tiny lobes bears a clump of setules. The labrum is contiguous with an anterior labral lobe that has a projecting anterior end with a cluster of long, naked setules (Park, 1995, called this structure the supralabrum). Both the labrum and the sub conical paragnaths are heavily sclerotized. The inner surface and part of the posterior surface of each paragnath is covered by setules. The base of each paragnath is connected to a heavily scleritized transverse bar that forms of the paragnath plate, and contains a cluster of small, spine like projections of teeth. The average length of the complex (not including the supralabral structure) is almost 12% of the total body length. With the base of the supralaral structure (not the projecting portion), the entire complex is 15% of the total body length. The length of the labrum base is slightly less than 40% of the length of the labrum-paragnath complex (excluding the supralabral lobe). The heigh of the labrum (including lip) is 1.2 times the length; the height of each paragnath is 62% of the length.

Distribution map of Paraeuchaeta elongata by geographical zones
Species Paraeuchaeta elongata - Distribution map 2issued from : A.G. Lewis & A. Ramnarine inJ. Fish. Res. Bd. Canada, 1969, 26. [p.1355, Fig.3]. As Euchaeta japonica.
Average numbers of eggs per egg cluster from January 1966 through August 1968 from Strait of Georgia (between Vancouver Island and the mainland.
Each point represents the average of 32 egg clusters.

Nota: The period of maximum egg production occurs during spring, at a time when large numbers of developmental stages of Calanus plumchrus are disponible as a food source. This increase in food to the female however, does not provide any demonstrable increase in the overall survival of the eggs. This suggests that the seasonal abundance of food is primarily responsible for the number of eggs produced and not their viability.

Population abundance estimates are for Dabob Bay, Washington during summer months (B. Frost, pers. comm.).
F = predatory clearance rates (volume swept clear of prey) see Landry, 1978.
F = V [Ln (nc) - ln (ne] / NT.

For each of the predatory copepods, a preferred prey was defined as the prey for which calculated clearance rate was highest, i.e., F max. I max = maximum of prey captured for copepod by day.

The mean relative swimming speeds (S) of the predatory copepods and their preferred prey were calculated by the equation (Gerritsen, 1980).
S = [u + v)3 - [u - v)3 / 6uv.
u and v are respectively, the mean swimming speeds (mm/s) of the prey and the predator.
