Topic: Euphausiidae


In the News (Sun 3 Jun 12)

  
  Malacostraca - LoveToKnow 1911
That certain species, particularly many from deep water, have disproportionately large eggs, is explained by the supposition that the young derive the advantage of being hatched in an advanced stage of development.
In the Euphausiidae the digitiform-arborescent branchiae, as if conscious of their own extreme elegance, remain wholly uncovered.
Among many papers that the student will find it necessary to consult may be mentioned the " Challenger " Report on Schizopoda, by Sars, 1885, dealing with the order at large; " British Schizopoda," by Norman Ann.

 Euphausia superba, Krill at MarineBio.org
The Euphausiidae family includes the other 89 known krill species, including one of the most common, Euphausia superba (Dana, 1852), which is the most frequent species associated with krill.
Krill in the Euphausiidae family are shrimp-like crustaceans that swarm in dense shoals, particularly in Antarctic waters.
The bioluminescence of krill species in the Euphausiidae family is a strong blue-green light that may be used for communication to help them congregate and spawn.

 Bentheuphausiidae
All the 85 other species of krill known are classified in the family Euphausiidae.
It is distinguished from the Euphausiidae by several morphological features, the most apparent being that they are not bioluminescent and that their first pair of pleopods is not modified as copulatory tool organs.
Also, their eyes are smaller than those of the Euphausiidae.

 PENGUINS - Diet & Eating Habits
Penguins eat krill (a shrimp-like crustacean in the Family Euphausiidae), squids, and fishes.
Various species of penguins have slightly different food preferences, which reduce competition among species.
Breeding male emperor penguins may fast 90 to 120 days during courtship, breeding, and the entire incubation period.

 Euphausiids
Euphausiids are eucarid crustaceans, popularly known as krill, and are divided in two families, The Bentheuphausiidae containing the single genus and species Bentheuphausia amblyops, and the Euphausiidae containing all other species.
There are 86 known species (including recently described Thysanopoda minyops and the reinstated Stylocheron armatus).

Natural history: As everyone knows, this is the largest animal to exist that we know about: - Size at sexual maturity is 22.5 meters in males and 25 meters in females (antarctic specimens slightly larger) - record is 33.58 m female (110 feet) for length, and 190,000 kg (419,000 lbs.) female for weight.
Baleen whales - feed on almost solely on crustaceans of the family Euphausiidae (generally less than 5 cm (2 inches) long).
Daily consumption has been estimated as high as 40 million individuals (3,600 kg).

 Article 34 - Dolgov: content
Fisheries waste, which was an important component in the diet of the skates, occurred in 12% of stomachs and was 35% of the mass of stomach contents.
The importance of small food items (Gammaridea, Euphausiidae and Polychaeta) reduced with increasing length of skate, whereas the importance of large crustaceans and fish increased (Fig.
The diet of skates in the 31–35 cm TL-group and larger consisted mainly of fish and large decapods.

The squid Gonatus antarcticus was also an important prey species (16% biomass), and many other cephalopod species were taken in low frequency.
Prawnlike crustaceans (Nematocarcinidae, Mysididae, Sergestidae and Euphausiidae) were the most important crustaceans taken (9% of prey biomass).
Significant inter-seasonal and inter-fishing-ground differences in diet were found, but dietary composition was not related to fishing depth, fish size (with the exception of one fishing ground in one season) or the time of day of capture.

The proportions of prey they take vary seasonally and geographically, depending on the abundance of prey in the area.
Crustaceans eaten are primarily amphipods (Amphipoda) or from the family Euphausiidae (krill), making up to 75% of the diet in some areas.
Cephalopods eaten include Psychroteuthis glacialis, Alluroteuthis antarcticus, and Kondakovia longimana.
