Lyngby, Denmark; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 March 2020; Accepted: 6 May 2020; Published: 11 May 2020 Abstract: Calanoid copepods have two swimming gaits, namely cruise swimming that is propelled by the beating of the cephalic feeding appendages and short-lasting jumps that are propelled by the power strokes of the four or five pairs of thoracal swimming legs. The latter may be 100 times faster than the former, and the required forces and power production are consequently much larger. Here, we estimated the magnitude and size scaling of swimming speed, leg beat frequency, forces, power requirements, and energetics of these two propulsion modes. We used data from the literature together with new data to estimate forces by two different approaches in 37 species of calanoid copepods: the direct measurement of forces produced by copepods attached to a tensiometer and the indirect estimation of forces from swimming speed or acceleration in combination with experimentally estimated drag coefficients. Depending on the approach, we found that the propulsive forces, both for cruise swimming and escape jumps, scaled with prosome length (L) to a power between 2 and 3.

During 2009 it was found throughout most of the Shannon River Navigation (~250km) occurring in swarms at estimated densities of ~6 per litre in shallows and in lower densities at depths of ~20m where its distribution overlaps with the native Mysis salemaai. Broods were found from March to September. It occurs mainly in lakes but small numbers were found at one river site. In summer, shallow- water specimens were found only during the night but in winter could be captured in daytime. It is not known by what means the species arrived in Ireland, or when. Key words: Hemimysis, mysid, Ireland, Shannon, lake, swarm Introduction H. anomala in 1992 on the coast of Finland is thought to have been with ships’ ballast water In April 2008, the Ponto-Caspian mysid (Salemaa and Hietalahti 1993), as is also the case Hemimysis anomala G.O.

Zoological Studies 50(4): 475-490. The Kuroshio Current (KC) is a northerly flowing warm-water current, which has major effects on the hydrography and faunal assemblages along the east coast of Taiwan. We studied the abundance and diversity of copepods at 5 stations for 3 consecutive years (2000-2002). Copepod samples were collected with a plankton net with a 1-m mouth opening and a mesh size of 333 μm deployed in oblique tows from 200 to 0 m in depth. In total, 174 copepod species including 6 orders, 31 families, and 68 genera (111 calanoids, 11 cyclopoids, 4 harpacticoids, 2 mormonilloids, 44 poecilostomatoids, and 2 siphonostomatoids) were identified at the species level. Spatial variations in copepod abundances among these 5 stations were not significant. The composition of the indicator species and cluster analysis varied seasonally, indicating seasonal succession. We suggest that copepod species of Acartia negligens, Clausocalanus mastigophorus, Cosmocalanus darwini, and Lucicutia flavicornis are indicator species of the KC in winter when the northeast monsoon (NEM) prevails; in contrast, Acrocalanus spp.

Our results revealed substantially higher species diversity (49 taxa) than if a single sampler (MPS: 38 taxa, MIK: 28) had been used. The youngest stage present (CIII) of Calanus spp. (including C. finmarchi- cus and C. glacialis) was sampled exclusively by the MPS, and the frequency of CIV copepodites in MPS was double that than in MIK samples. In contrast, catches of the CV-CVI copepodites of Calanus spp.

    The Aquatic Glacial Relict Fauna of Norway – an Update of Distribution and Conservation Status

    Fauna norvegica 2016 Vol. 36: 51-65. The aquatic glacial relict fauna of Norway – an update of distribution and conservation status Ingvar Spikkeland1, Björn Kinsten2, Gösta Kjellberg3, Jens Petter Nilssen4 and Risto Väinölä5 Spikkeland I, Kinsten B, Kjellberg G, Nilssen JP, Väinölä R. 2016. The aquatic glacial relict fauna of Norway – an update of distribution and conservation status. Fauna norvegica 36: 51-65. The aquatic “glacial relict” fauna in Norway comprises a group of predominantly cold-water animals, mainly crustaceans, which immigrated during or immediately after the deglaciation when some of the territory was still inundated by water. Their distribution is mainly confined to lakes in the SE corner of the country, east of the Glomma River in the counties of Akershus, Østfold and Hedmark. We review the history and current status of the knowledge on this assemblage and of two further similarly distributed copepod species, adding new observations from the last decades, and notes on taxonomical changes and conservation status. By now records of original populations of these taxa have been made in 42 Norwegian lakes. Seven different species are known from Lake Store Le/Foxen on the Swedish border, whereas six species inhabit lakes Femsjøen, Øymarksjøen and Rødenessjøen, and five are found in Aspern, Aremarksjøen and in the largest Norwegian lake, Mjøsa. From half of the localities only one of the species is known. The most common species are Mysis relicta (s.str.), Pallaseopsis quadrispinosa and Limnocalanus macrurus. Some populations may have become extirpated recently due to eutrophi- cation, acidification or increased fish predation. Apart from the main SE Norwegian distribution, some lakes of Jæren, SW Norway, also harbour relict crustaceans, which is puzzling.

A distribuição zoogeográfica das espécies de copépodos Rhincalanus gigas, R. nasutus, R. cornutus, Pseudeuchirella hirsuta, Valdiviella insigáis, V. brevicornis, Pseudeuchaeta brevicauda, Undeuchaeta major, U. intermedia, Euchaeta longicornis, E. marina, E. tenuis, Paraeuchaeta antárctica, P. aequatorialis, P. barbata, P biloba, P. birostrata, P. bisinuata, P californica, P. confusa, P dubia, P farrani, P. gran- diremis, P hanseni, P. malayensis, P. pseudotonsa, P polita, P. rasa, P. sarsi, P. scotti, P- similis, P. tonsa, P weberi foi estudada de 129 am ostras coletadas do U.S.N.S. “Eltanin” em águas entre as latitudes 2°34’ N e 67°28’S e longitudes 42°44’ e 81°61’W. Onde possível a distribuição das espécies foi correlacionada com a profundidade, os meses do ano e as massas dágua ocorrentes na região. Um ciclo migratório foi proposto, e as espécies mais freqüentes, assim como as novas ocorrências, foram registradas.
