Brodskii, K.A. 1964. Distribution and morphological features of the antarctic species of CALANUS (COPEPODA). In: A.P. Andriyashev & P.V. Ushakov eds. Studies of Marine Fauna II(X) Biological Reports of the Soviet Antarctic expedition (1955-1958) Vol.2, Israel Program for Sci. Trans. p. 194-256. Spatial Coverage: Antarctic Ocean Temporal Coverage: 1955-1958 Language: English (original language Russian) Summary: This paper contains abundance, length, and life history data of four species of Calanus copepods. The data is a compilation of 3 cruises of the MV OB carried out by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition during the IGY (1955-1958). The surveys paid close attention to obtaining complete data on the populations and distribution of the adult stages of Copepoda. Two types of plankton nets were used; Juday net with mesh size No. 38 and the K100 net with mesh size No. 9 in the cylindrical part, No. 15 in the upper part and No. 23 or 38 in the lower part of the net. This paper also includes excellent cruise and Calanus abundance maps as well as extensive station information.
