Planche 1 issued from : V.N. Ivanenko & D. Defaye in Crustaceana, 2006, 79 (6). [p.720, Fig.6, E]. Female (from 86.46°73'N, 136.51°03'E): E, distal (3rd) segment of A1.
Planche 2 issued from : V.N. Ivanenko & D. Defaye in Crustaceana, 2006, 79 (6). [p.721, Fig.7]. Female: A, Md (mandibular palp); B, Md (masticatory edge); C, Mx1 (distinctive seta indicated by arrow); D, Mxp.
Nota: 3rd segment of A1 ornamented with rows of setules. Urosomal somite 1 with or without P5 represented by two pairs of long setae on the ventral side (observed only one aberrant female). P1 : inner margin of coxa, basis, and proximal endopodal segments ornamented with groups of stout spinules ; middle part of distomedial seta of distal exopodal segment with stout barbs ; distal exopodal segments with small, curved proximal spinules. P2 : distomedial margin of distal endopodal segment ornamented with setules ; inner margin of 1st exopodal segment with row of spinules. P3 : distomedial margin of distal endopodal segment ornamented with setules ; inner margin of 1st exopodal segment with a row of spinules in distal and one in proximal parts of segment
Planche 3 issued from : V.N. Ivanenko & D. Defaye in Crustaceana, 2006, 79 (6). [p.723, Fig.8]. Female: A, P1: endopods, exopod, coxal and basal inner margins (posterior; small curved spinule of exopod arrowed); B, endopod and exopod of P2 (posterior; ornamentation with spinules arrowed); C, endopod and exopod of P3 (posterior; ornamentation with spinules arrowed); D, 1st somite of urosome and genital double-somite (another aberrant specimen).
Ivanenko & Defaye (2006, p.722) remark : G.O. Sars (1900) descibed Mormonilla polaris from the Arctic Ocean and indicated the lack of differences between this species and Mormonilla minor Giesbrecht (1891). later, Farran (1908- synonymized this species with M. minor. For the authors this species requires re-establishing the validity of Mormonilla polaris and placing it in the new genus Neomormonilla
