Carte de distribution de Macandrewella cochinensis par zones géographiques
Espèce Macandrewella cochinensis - Carte de distribution 2issued from : S. Ohtsuka, S. Nishida & K. Nakaguchi inJ. Nat. Hist., 2002, 36 [p.558, Fig.21].
Distribution of several species of Macandrewella: 1, 2, 4, M. chelipes; 3, M. cochinensis; 4, M. scotti; 5, 8, 10, M. sewelli; 6, M. stygiana; 7, M. joanae; 8, M. asymmetrica; 8, M. mera; 9, M. agassizi; 11, M. serratipes.
Loc:
India (Cochin), N Red Sea (Sharm El-Maya Bay)
N: 3
Lg.:
(526) F: 3,15-3; M: 2,95-2,9; (1153) F: 2,88-3,15; M: 2,83-3,21; {F: 2,88-3,15; M: 2,83-3,21}
Rem.: The species closely resembles M. stygiana. After El-Sherbiny & Al-Aidaroos (2013, p.14) this species is the first record in the family Scolecitrichidae to form a monospecific aggregation (swarm) near surface, suggesting an antipredation against visual predators or facilitating and enhancing mating opportunity. Among adults males show a slightly higher percentage in the population than females (38.1 and 34.4 % respectively).
In general, morphological characters of Macandrewella specimens collected from the northern Red Sea correspond to M. cochinensis and they are currently attributed to this species. However, their taxonomic status is expected to be proved when additional specimens from the M. cochinensis type locality will be obtained. The studied specimens from the Red Sea differ from M. cochinensis sensu Gopalakrishnan (1973) in the following characters of females (features of Gopalakrishnan given in brackets): 1- pedigers 4 and 5 fused (separate); 2- pediger 5 with 2 pairs of processes, both dorsolateral projecting lamellar with serrated margin (apparently overlooked); 3- genital double-somite with asymmetrical anterodorsal protrusion on each side and posterodorsal swelling on left side (not described, only mentioned it is asymmetrical); 4- A2 1st endopodal segment with 2 setae subterminally (1 seta); 5- endopodal middle lobe of distal segment with 8 setae (7 setae); 6- endopodal terminal lobe of distal segment bearing 7 setae (6 setae); 7- A2 2nd exopodal segment with long setae (seta shorter); 8- Md palp with basis carrying 2 setae (1 seta); 9- endopodal segment with 9 setae (10 setae); 10- Mx1 praecoxal artrite with 13 setae (9 setae); 11- Mx1 coxal epipodite bearing 9 setae (8 setae); 12- Mx1 2nd basal endite with 5 setae (4 setae); 13- Mx1 basiendopod with 7 terminal setae (6 setae); 14- Mxp endopod with setal formula 2, 4, 4, 3, 3+1, 4 (vs 2, 4, 4, 3, 2+1, 4); 15- P3 basis with lateral prominence (absent); 16- surface spinulation of swimming legs is more dense than in the original description; 17- P5 rudimentary, composed of 2 segments (apparently overlooked).
Male from the Red Sea and described by Gopalakrishnan (1973): differ in 2nd exopodal segment of left P5 with 1 seta and 1 element terminally (1 element).
