Observations on the Isopod Mesidotea entomon in the Western Canadian Arctic Ocean
The collection of Mesidotea entomon (Linnaeus) during the 1960 cruise of the Salvelinus in the western Canadian Arctic ocean has expanded the recorded distribution of the species. Population densities were highest in mud-bottomed areas where water temperatures ranged from −1.3 to +10.0 °C. No specim...
