General Description

provided by Caprellids LifeDesk

Caprellid, "Ghost" or "Skeleton" shrimps, so called for their skeletal appearance. Amphipod crustaceans, easily distinguished by the elongate stick-like body form and reduction of the abdominal appendages. Head is generally fused with pereonite 1. Pereopods on first 2 segments (pereonites) are most flexible and called gnathopods; gnathopods 2 being the largest, used in defense, feeding and substrate attachment. In many species pereopods 3 and 4 may also be reduced or absent. Gills on pereonites 3 + 4, rarely on pereonite 2. Pereopods 5 - 7 much smaller than 1 + 2, used for clinging to the substratum. In females, brood plates (öostegites) develop on pereonites 3 + 4. Much remains to be learnt about their biology, ecology and in many cases changing distributions.

Caprella trispinis ( Norwegian )

provided by wikipedia NO

Caprella trispinis er en art i slekten Caprella innenfor spøkelseskreps-familien (orden Caprelloidea eller «spøkelsestanglopper») - en type tanglopper. Larvene er planktoniske. De er relativt små, med to store ot to små antenner. De lever bare i havet (saltvann).

Taksonomisk plassering

Slektens systematikk er i nyere tid beskrevet og oppdatert i 2003.[1] Artens moderne tilhørighet i Caprella-krepsenes systematikk gis nedenfor i lys av 2013-revisjonen med basis i WoRMS-databasen. [2]
