Espèce Protoparamisophria biforaminis - Planche 1 de figures morphologiques

issued from : S. Ohtsuka, S. Nishida & R.J. Machida in J. Nat. Hist., 2005, 39 (27). [p.2493, Fig.4].
Female (from Sulu Sea): A-B, habitus (dorsal and lateral, respectively); C, rostrum (lateral); D, idem (anterior); E, genital double-somite (left lateral; gonopore and copulatory pore indicated by large and small arrowhead, respectively); F, idem (ventral; spematophore remnant omitted; symbols as in E); G, spermatophore remnant on genital double-somite; H, left A1; I, terminal segments of left A1; J, right A1.
Scale bars in mm.

Nota: Rostrum narrowly pointed with 2 fine filaments (1 missing in figure).
Urosome 4-segmented.
Genital double-somite asymmetrical, with longitudinal ridge on left side and paired, small papillae dorsolaterally; ventral surface with paired gonopores anteriorly (indicated by large arrowheads) and paired copulatory pores (indicated by small arrowheads) at mid-length; seminal receptacles asymmetrically arranged, packed with sperm; spematophore remnant tinged brownish, covering copulatory pores, and having paired, bulbous, well-chitinized ducts, each connected to copulatory pore.
Caudal rami symmetrical, fringed with long setules along inner margin.
A1 asymmetrical, with left about 1.3 times as long as right; 1st (I-III) to 8 (X) segments fringed with long setules along posterior margin (only scars remaining on some segments in fig.4H, I); left A1 22-segmented. Right A1 with same fusion pattern and armature as left.

Rem.:

hyperbenthic (1516 m).
For Ohtsuka & al. (2005, p.2497), the asymmetrical A1 and stout spines on the legs strongly suggest that it is a truly hyperbenthic calanoid (see in Bradford-Grieve, 2002).
