Espèce Acartia (Euacartia) southwelli - Planche 1 de figures morphologiquesissued from : M. Madhupratap & P. Haridas in Hydrobiologia, 1994, 292/293. [p.69, Fig.1]
Female: A, habitus (dorsal view); B, urosome (dorsal), (spinules show variability); C, urosome (right lateral side); D, head with rostral filaments (ventral).
Male: F, urosome (dorsal).

20 females and 10 males from the Tuticorin (8°56'N, 78°20'E) and 100 females and 50 males from Portonovo (11°52'N, 79°50'E°E)6), plus specimens from Cochin backwaters (10°N, 76°E), Mandovi-Zuari estuaries (15°30'N, 74°E).

Nota female:

Fine spinules shown on urosomal somites (fig.1B), and male (fig.1F) present only in specimens from Portonovo; the number of spinules varies within this population; specimens examined from other localities without spinules on urosomal somites.; however, spinules may be present on the urosome somites of animals from other localities (Tranter & Abraham, 1971, have shown the female from Cochin possessing some spinules.
- Caudal rami symmetrical, 1.4 times longer than broad, bearing 5 plumose setae and 1 setule.
Urosomal segments and caudal rami with proportions 46 : 19 : 12: 23 = 100.

Nota male:
- Prosome-Urosome ratio 3.1 : 1.
- Posterior corners of pediger 5 naked.
- Urosomal segments also unusually unarmed (variability shown in fig.1F)
- Caudal rami nearly as broad as long.
- Proportions of urosomal segments and caudal rami 11 : 29 : 23 : 8 : 12 : 17 = 100.
