Abstract |
Five species of harpacticoid copepods belonging to three families and four genera were collected from various samples of sea ice taken during five cruises of RV Polarstern to the Weddell Sea from 1985-89. One species is new and described, namely Hastigerella antarctica sp. n. Drescheriella racovitzai comb. n. (Griesbrecht, 1902), Harpacticus furcifer Giesbrecht, 1902 and Idomene antarctica (Giesbrecht, 1902) are redescribed. The fourth nauplius of an unknown representative of Ectinosomatidae is described as well as three naupliar stages of Harpacticus furcifer. |
