The mean female size is 5.817 mm (n = 11; SD = 0.7175), and the mean male size is 5.136 mm (n = 7; SD = 0.3222). The size ratio (male : female) is 0.918 (n = 3; SD = 0.0734) or ± 92 %.
Rem.: mesopelagic.
After Tanaka (1973, p.138) the species is very closely allied to Euchaeta spinosa Giesbrecht, but is easily distinguished from the latter by the shape of the rostrum and genital boss when viewed from the lateral. In the former the outer marginal spine on the 3rd segment of the exopod of the P2 does not reach the base of the 3rd spine on the same segment.
For Park (1995, p.22) this species belongs to ‘’acuta ’’ Group.
Timonin (1971, p.282) considers the trophic interrelations in the equatorial and tropical Indian Ocean, and divides the plankters into 6 trophic groups from the litterature and the results of studies of mouth-parts structure and intestine content. This species is a seizing and masticating carnivorous.
Park (1995, p.26) found this species along the west coast of America between 29°N and 24°S, in equatorial waters of the whole Pacific between 0° and 11°S, the western Pacific including the Malay Archipelago, The East and South China seas, and waters off Japan between 35°N and 14°S, and the Indian Ocean between 5°N and 21°S.
