Abstract
Caprella bidentata Utinomi, 1947, is synonymized with Caprella monoceros Mayer, 1890, based upon results of rearing experiments. A clutch of juveniles of C. monoceros exhibited two different types of body spination, one typical of C. monoceros and the other representing C. bidentata. An extensive description of C. monoceros is provided.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
