Medeiros, DJT3 2011_Taylor 100. Diagnosis. Parthenogenetic female. In lateral view body sub-ovoid (Fig. 1 A), maximum height of the body in its middle portion (BH/BL= 0.63–0.74; VL/BL=0.81–0.93). In anterior or dorsal view, body is not compressed laterally, median dorsal keel absent (Fig. 1 B–C). Rostrum relatively long (Fig. 1 D). Ocellus small. Head shield wide (Fig. 1 E). Dorsal head pores located in midline of head shield in its posterior portion; no projections in this area, ring of major head pore not elevated above head shield. Lateral head pores elongated along longitudinal body axis (Fig. 1 F). Labrum with a large median keel terminated as an angled apex projected beyond tip of antenna I (Fig. 1 D, G). Postabdomen as a large (PL/BL= 0.42–0.52), relatively broad (PH /PL= 0.51–0.61) plate with subparallel ventral and dorsal margin (Fig. 2 A) and deep anal embayment (Fig. 2 A–B). Preanal teeth pointed (NT= 99–110 in adults), dark, strongly chitinized or without pigmentation (Fig. 2 C), a gap between proximalmost tooth and bases of postabdominal setae (Fig. 2 D). Teeth in distal part of postanal margin large, long, predominantly doubled; teeth in distal part of anal – basal part of postanal margin short, almost all of them single (Fig. 2 B). Postabdominal claw relatively robust (CL/PL=0.21–0.29) with two basal spines (DS/CL=0.27–0.37; BS/CL=0.11– 0.16; BS/DS=0.31–0.48). Antenna I elongated (AL/BL=0.10–0.14; AL/DA=4.3–5.5); antennular sensory seta (Fig. 2 E, ass) arising in antenna I distal part (Fig. 2 E); numerous short rows of minute denticles encircling antennular surface. On antenna II, a spine situated on proximal segment of exopod equal in length of that of second segment or slightly longer (Fig. 2 F). Limb I with IDL (Fig. 2 G, IDL) with three bisegmented setae, one of them a relatively strong hook-like seta, its diameter at base is equal or slightly more than diameter at base of longest setae of IDL. The smallest of the three setae relatively short, its length in two or more times less than longest setae of IDL. IDL supplied with 10–12 long distal spinules (Fig. 2 H–I, dis), 11–15 long proximal spinules (Fig. 2 H, pro), and 10 very short basal spinules (Fig. 2 H, bas), marginal spinules absent (Fig. 2 H, position of these spinules in other species marked as mar). Eight setae in filter plate II (Fig. 3 A, fpl), four setae in distal armature of gnathobase II (Fig. 3 B, dag); 10 setae in filter plate III (Fig. 3 C), three setae in distal armature of gnathobase III (Fig. 3 D); 9–10 setae in filter plate IV (Fig. 3 E), four setae in distal armature of gnathobase IV (Fig. 3 F), 8–9 setae in filter plate V (Fig. 3 G), two hooks on gnathobase V (Fig. 3 H); limb VI as a oval plate (Fig. 3 I). Exopodite IV (Fig. 3 E, ext) with 8 setae, exopodite V with 8 setae. Intestine with a double loop (Fig. 1 A, ilp), posterior intestinal caecum absent (Fig. 1 A, pic). Ephippium. Entire shell serves as ephippium, which is from almost transparent to strongly pigmented depending on environmental conditions (Kaiser 1959). Adult male (short diagnosis based on Flössner (1972, 2000)). In lateral view body more elongated as compared with female. Rostrum short. Labral keel small (shorter than antenna I), with a well-developed apex. Postabdomen as in female. Antenna I more thick as compared with that in female, with relatively short antennular sensory setae, located at a distance of 1/3 antenna length from its distal end, and a small male setae located almost medially. Terminal aesthetascs relatively long; additional aesthetascs on posterior surface on antenna I body. Limb I supplied by a strong clasping hook located between IDL and ODL. Size. Adult parthenogenetic females 3.32–4.32 mm (in our material); adult parthenogenetic females 4.2–6.1 mm (Hann, 1990); male 1–2 mm (Flössner, 1972). Differential diagnosis. Among the species of Eurycercus ( Teretifrons ), E. glacialis is unique having no projections in the head pore area and a ring of major head pore not elevated above headshield. In contrast to E. chernovi sp.nov ., it has 10 setae in exopodite IV and 8 setae in exopodite V. Distribution. The species is apparently present in Greenland, Iceland, British Islands (Duigan & Frey 1987; Duigan 1991), northern islands of Germany and Netherlands, northern Belgium (Flössner 1972, 2000; De Meester & Bosmans 1993) in Europe; Sakhalin Island, Kurile Islands, Magadan Area, continental Kamchatka Peninsula, Bering Island, Chukotka Peninsula, continental Alaska, Kodiak Island (and, most probably, Aleutian Islands) in Pacific region. In contrast, records from European-Asian Arctic coast (i.e. Scandinavia, Kola Peninsula, Siberia, Vaigatch Island, Novaya Zemlya, and other localities, see Flössner 1972) must be checked, as well as all records from Arctic Canada and U.S.A. (see review of Frey 1971). Such populations could belong to another species (i.e. described below or undescribed ones). Population determined as E. glacialis from Hokkaido (Inoue, 1968) could belong to another species. Frey (1971) concluded that this is in reality E. lamellatus , but most probably the latter is absent in Japan (Bekker et al . 2012). At the same time, Japanese populations could really belong to E. glacialis , because it is present in North Kurile Islands and Sakhalin (Minakawa & Tanaka 2000; Minakawa et al . 2006), the next-door territories to Hokkaido. See information on ecological preferences of this species in Flössner (1972, 2000). Comments. At this moment, we can conclude that E. glacialis is an adequately described taxon, see history of its studies in Hann (1990). : Published as part of Bekker, Eugeniya I. & Kotov, Alexey A., 2016, A revision of the subgenus Eurycercus (Teretifrons) Frey, 1975 (Crustacea: Cladocera) in the Holarctic with description of a new species from Russian Arctic, pp. 351-376 in Zootaxa 4147 (4) on pages 353-358, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4147.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/267823 : {"references": ["Lilljeborg, W.
