Frequency and population composition of Halobates micans (Heteroptera: Gerridae) from the central and south Atlantic Ocean

Halobates micans was sorted from 212 surface tows taken along three transatlantic transects. 61 tows were positive; 48 were from a single transect between Cape Town and the Canary Islands. 2,016 insect specimens were collected, including nymphs of all five developmental stages, adults and cast skins...
