Description
Summary:Discoconchoecia elegans (Sars, 1965) Conchoecia elegans Sars, 1865; Paraconnchoenia elegans Poulsen, 1973 Material examined. Lectotype— female, station N-2. Allolectotype— (station N-2). P aralectotype —nine female, stations N-1, N-2, N-3, N-9, ICE1, eight males, stations N-1, N-9, (Table 2). Description Female (collected in vicinity of Svalbard). Carapace (Figs 2 A–B; 4A; Table 3). The carapace is 1.9–2.3 mm long, with a height of 0.82–0.98 mm (37.3% ± 2.3%) (N. B. all values have been standardized by expressing them as percentages of the carapace length (CL) of the individual) and breadth of 0.7 mm (31.5% ± 3.0%). There is a sculpture consisting of a few striae running parallel to ventral margin. The posterior dorsal corner of the right valve bears two spines (Fig. 2 C), whereas on the left valve there is one small spine at the PDC. The maximum carapace height is at about mid-length. The rostra are similar in length (11.7% ± 0.4% CL), and similar in length to the incisures, which show some disparity in ... : Published as part of Stępień, Anna, Błachowiak-Samołyk, Katarzyna & Angel, Martin V., 2015, A re-description of Discoconchoecia elegans (Sars, 1865) (Ostracoda: Halocyprididae) from high latitudes in the North Atlantic in Zootaxa 3995 (1), DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3995.1.9, http://zenodo.org/record/242697 ...
