Image of Neognathophausia ingens (Dohrn 1870)
Description:
A large sub-adult Gnathophausia ingens swimming past a 1-cm grid. Note that swimming is accomplished with the pleopods, which beat metachronously, and the left and right sides are in opposite phase of beat. The thoracopods are held tightly against the underside of the thorax. (Photo by: Dave Cowles, 1987)
