 issued from : R.B.S. Sewell in The John Murray Expedition, 1933-34, Scientific Reports, VIII (1), 1947. [p.122, Fig.27]. Female (from central Arabian Sea): A, genital complex (ventral); B, Mx1; C, P1; D, P2. Nota: The proportional lengths of the cephalothorax and abdomen as 68 to 32. The proportional lengths of the various segments of the body (cephalon to caudal rami) as 283:146:88:93:70:128:74:65:7:46 = 1000. The posterior thoracic margin is rounded and provided with a dense bunch of long hairs. Head and 1st pediger segment separate, 4th and 5th fused; In the stained specimen a narrow line of fusion can be seen betwen thoracic segments 4 and 5; the dorso-lateral spine on segment 5 is absent. Genital segment closely resembles that of P. sarsi Farran. The ventral aspect of the 3rd, 4th and 5th urosomal segments are furnised with long hairs, and the caudal rami hairy on the ventral and lateral aspects. On the dorsal part of the posterior margin of the 3rd urosomal segment is a group of 2 or 3 large spinules. Anal segment very short, telescoped into the 4th segment. In Mx1 the outer lobe bears 7 large setae and posteriorly 2 other smaller ones; exopod with 11 setae; Inner lobe 1 with 12 setae, lobes 2 and 3 each with 1 stout seta; the 2nd basal segment with 5 setae, of which the inner and outemost very small; the 1st endopodal segment with 5 setae, of which 2 are stout and are spined along one margin, yhe combined 2nd and 3rd segments bear 3 setae, of which the middle one is small and the 1st and 3rd are stout, and spined along both margins; at the base of these setae on endopod 2-3 is a group of fine hair-like spinules. Male: E, clasping organ of left P5; F, idem (another view).

 issued from : A. Scott in Siboga-Expedition, 1909, XIX a. [Plate XVIII, Figs.1-8]. As Paraeuchaeta barbata. Female (from Banda Sea): 1, habitus (dorsal); 2, forehead (lateral); 3, last thoracic and genital segments (left side); 4, A1; 5, part of one of the distal hairs of Mxp; 6, P1; 7,
P2; 8, part of terminal spine (exopodite of P3)

 issued from : H.B. Owre & M. Foyo in Fauna Caribaea, 1967, 1, Crustacea, 1: Copepoda. [p.54, Figs.322-323]. As Euchaeta malayensis. With doubt. Female (from 25°33'N, 79°48'W)): 322, habitus (dorsal); 323, forehead (lateral). Nota: One female collected (820-418 m). This is a new record for the western North Atlantic. The length is much longer than the females examined by Sewell (1929) and Tanaka (1958). Prosome constitutes 76 p.100 of the total length and the urosome 24 p.100. Thus the length of the urosome is contained in the anterior body 3.23 times compared with 2.115 times as reported by Sewell, and 2.3-2.5 times by Tanaka. The A1 extend back to the proximal part of the 5th thoracic segment, not to the distal part or to the middle of the 2nd urosomal segment. Unfortunately, P2 are missing.

Night: shaded, day: unshaded.
Samples collected from 6 stations located off Cochin (India), SE Arabian Sea, November 1983, with a Multiple Closing Plankton Net (mesh aperture 300 µm), in vertical hauls at 4 depth intervalls (0-200, 200-400, 400-600, 600-1000 m). |

For Park (1995) this form would be strictly Indo-Pacific and collected this species in the Bay of Bengal, the Malay Archipelago, the South and East China seas, along the Pacific coast of Japan up to 35°18'N, and throughout the equatorial Pacific from the Malay Archipelago to the west coast of South America, where the species occurred between 2°N and 12°S off Ecuador and Peru.
Tanaka's (1958, p.312) specimens are closer to the specimen of P. barbata A. Scott, 1909 (= malayensis) from Malay Archipelago than to P. malayensis Sewell taken from the Indian Seas.
Its presence in the Caribbean-Gulf of Mexico, if it was confirmed, could be due to the isolation resulting from the closing of the Isthmus of Panama. Hernandez-Trujillo & Esqueda-Escarcega, 2002 (in Appendix) inventory the presence of this species in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. | | | Last update : 07/12/2020 | |
