Planche 6 issued from : B. Morris in J. Fish. Res. Bd Canada, 1970, 27 (12). [p.2318, Fig.11, K-N];
Male (from 34°49'N, 160°19'W): K, urosome (dorsal); L, Md (biting edge of gnathobase); M, Mx2; N, P5 (posterior).

Nota: The male differs from previous descriptions of C. elongata (Giesbrecht & Schmeil, 1898; Sars, 1925; Rose, 1933); Farran, 1948, and Grice, 1963) in having 1- a deeper bifurcation of the basal tooth of the Md gnathobase: 2 - 4 small spines on the right 4th segment of P5 instead of 2; 3 - no spine on the right 3rd segment of P5; 4 - somewhat differently shaped processes on the right corner at the posterior prosome, and on the right sides of the urosomal segments 1 and 2 (that of the urosomal 2 being most different). Grice (1963) synonymized Candacia inermis Cleve, 1904, of which only the female has been described, with C. elongata, but he does regard inermis as a distinct type within the species. His report of one female of the inermis type from the tropical west Pacific. The male recorded here may be the inermis type male.

The mean female size is 3.057 mm (n = 11; SD = 0.5058), and the mean male size is 3.326 mm (n = 7; SD = 0.2632). The size ratio (male : female) is is approximately 1.

Remarques

méso-bathypélagique.
Un doute subsiste sur la synonymie de C. inermis, donc pour certaines localisations dans le Pacifique et l’Indien.
Le mâle décrit par Morris (1970) pourrait être celui de C. inermis si la synonymie n'est pas retenue.
