Description Largest species of the Bathyporeia genus measuring up to 8 mm long. Robust and laterally flattened body. Head without rostrum but with clearly discernible eyes. The upper antennae seem to be standing on an outgrowth of the head. [details]

Distribution Bathyporeia guilliamsoniana was found in both periods across the entire Belgian part of the North Sea, with the exception of the eastern coastal zone. In both periods the species reached a maximum density of approximately 800 ind./m2. [details]

Habitat Bathyporeia guilliamsoniana prefers coarse sediments with a median grain size > 200 μm (relative occurrence > 20%). The species further avoids sediments with high mud contents (maximum 20%) and reaches its maximum relative occurrence (± 20%) in sediments with a mud content not exceeding 10%. [details]
