Distribution Johnsen (2001) studied samples of presumed Onisimus normani from different parts of the world, and concluded that they all (except the ones from S Norway) belonged in the turgidus species complex; unfortunately there was not sufficient material available to be able to revise this entire complex. The type material was collected from the Barents Sea and it has been collected from this area several times since (Bryazgin 1997; Lyubina et al . 2014, sub nomine O. normani Zimina et al . 2019). Material from N Norway (Ullsfjorden) is quite similar to the type material, but the animals are smaller, 10 mm against 14 mm for the type. No fully adult or ovigerous specimens of O. turgidus have been found as yet, similar to the situation in O. normani . Onisimus turgidus ...
