L. Beladjal et al., A PRELIMINARY-ANALYSIS OF THE CERCOPOD SETATION PATTERN OF ALGERIAN ANOSTRACA (CRUSTACEA) SPECIES, Belgian journal of zoology, 125(2), 1995, pp. 383-393
The position, number and length of the setae on the cercopods of Anost
raca species are graphically represented and analysed. All species fou
nd in Algeria are used as examples. This revealed significant differen
ces among the representatives of the genera Artemia, Branchinella, Bra
nchipus, Chirocephalus, Streptocephalus and Tanymastigites, and betwee
n the related congeners Streptocephalus torvicornis and S. rubricaudat
us, and Tanymastigites perrieri and T. mzabica.
