Gymnoplea
Calanoida is an order of copepods, a group of arthropods commonly found as zooplankton. The order includes around 46 families with about 1800 species of both marine and freshwater copepods between them. Description Calanoids can be distinguished from other planktonic copepods by having first antennae at least half the length of the body and biramous second antennae. However, their most distinctive anatomical trait is the presence of a joint between the fifth and sixth body segments. The largest specimens reach long, but most do not exceed long. Classification Calanoida contains the following families, as well as the genus '' Microdisseta'' (which is currently ''incertae sedis''); * Acartiidae * Aetideidae * Arctokonstantinidae * Arietellidae * Augaptilidae * Bathypontiidae * Calanidae * Calocalanidae * Candaciidae * Centropagidae * Clausocalanidae * Diaixidae * Diaptomidae * Discoidae * Epacteriscidae * Eucalanidae * Euchaetidae * Fosshageniidae * Heterorhabdi ...

Natural History Museum Of Los Angeles County
The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County is the largest natural and historical museum in the western United States. Its collections include nearly 35 million specimens and artifacts and cover 4.5 billion years of history. This large collection is comprised not only of specimens for exhibition, but also of vast research collections housed on and offsite. The museum is associated with two other museums in Greater Los Angeles: the Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits in Hancock Park and the William S. Hart Ranch and Museum in Newhall. The three museums work together to achieve their common mission: "to inspire wonder, discovery, and responsibility for our natural and cultural worlds." History NHM opened in Exposition Park, Los Angeles, California, United States in 1913 as The Museum of History, Science, and Art. The moving force behind it was a museum association founded in 1910. Its distinctive main building with fitted marble walls and domed and colonnaded rotunda ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Two species, ''P. crassirostris'' and ''P. brevispinis'', are common. The former is a widely distributed subtropical species that feeds largely on small flagellate phytoplankton. Although a subtropical species might be expected to flourish in summer, external factors such as pre ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Euchaetidae
Euchaetidae is a family of marine copepods. The family is cosmopolitan and occurs in all the oceans, including the Southern and Arctic Oceans. Euchaetidae are medium to large-sized copepods. Genera There are two genera with in total 114 species: Ecology ''Euchaeta'' are mostly epipelagic whereas ''Paraeuchaeta'' are mostly bathypelagic. Where more than one species occurs, congeneric species (or life stages of a single species, as observed for ''Paraeuchaeta antarctica'') may partition the water column, whereas species representing different genera that occur at similar depths differ in dietary preferences. ''Paraeuchaeta'' can be important predators of fish larvae. Their mode of predation is " drift and wait". The dominant euchaetid in the Southern Ocean is ''Paraeuchaeta antarctica''. It is a dominant predator there, and its fatty acid profile suggests that it mostly preys upon herbivorous calanid copepods. In the Weddell Sea The Weddell Sea is part of the Southern Ocean ...
