DescriptionA small copepod,[1] the female is generally between {{convert|1|and|2.15|mm|in}}, and the male typically between {{convert|.85|and|1.6|mm|in}} in length.[2] DistributionP. minutus is found primarily in the Arctic, but it is also found in the northwest Atlantic, the northern Pacific,[1] and more temperate waters where Atlantic and Arctic waters are mixed.[2]EcologyLife cycle and reproductionIn Toyama Bay, P. minutus reproduces from February to April, producing two generations. This is during the temperature minimum (of about {{convert|10|to|12|C|F}}) and phytoplankton maximum. All stages are found at shallower depths during the night (diel vertical migration) in Toyama Bay during this time. During the annual temperature maximum (of over {{convert|26|C|F}}) in September, stage V copepodites migrate (possibly gradually) to deeper, colder waters to diapause (in contrast to the congeneric P. newmani, which does not seem to be able to diapause). They moult to adults before January, rising to the surface to breed.[3] In Kongsfjorden, P. minutus reproduces during May and June, producing one generation (consistent with a trend for higher latitude populations to produce less generations). It descends in autumn and winter{{efn|All seasons are for the Northern Hemisphere}} to depths below {{convert|100|m|ft}} as a stage III to stage V copepodite. Females and stage I copepodites are found throughout the water column during November. From June and July till May, younger stages tend to be found towards the surface, and older stages tend to migrate to overwinter earlier.[2] It develops during the winter and reproduces with energy gained from the spring phytoplankton bloom, indicating a one year life cycle.[7] FeedingP. minutus is opportunistic, being mainly herbivorous except during the winter, when it is either carnivorous or omnivorous.[4]References{{notelist}}1. ^1 {{cite web|author1=Razouls C.|author2=de Bovée F.|author3=Kouwenberg J.|author4=Desreumaux N.|url=https://copepodes.obs-banyuls.fr/en/fichesp.php?sp=628|title=Diversity and Geographic Distribution of Marine Planktonic Copepods|year=2018|access-date=20 October 2018|publisher=Sorbonne Université, CNRS}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite journal|last1=Lischka|first1=Silke|last2=Hagen|first2=Wilhelm|title=Life histories of the copepods Pseudocalanus minutus, P. acuspes (Calanoida) and Oithona similis (Cyclopoida) in the Arctic Kongsfjorden (Svalbard)|journal=Polar Biology|volume=28|issue=12|year=2005|pages=910–921|issn=0722-4060|doi=10.1007/s00300-005-0017-1}} 3. ^{{Cite journal| volume = 45|issue=2| last1 = Yamaguchi| first1 = Atsushi| last2 = Ikeda| first2 = Tsutomu| last3 = Shiga| first3 = Naonobu| title = Population structure and life cycle of Pseudocalanus minutus and Pseudocalanus newmani (Copepoda: Calanoida) in Toyama Bay, southern Japan Sea| journal = Plankton Biology and Ecology| year=1998}} 4. ^1 {{cite journal|last1=Lischka|first1=Silke|last2=Hagen|first2=Wilhelm|title=Seasonal lipid dynamics of the copepods Pseudocalanus minutus (Calanoida) and Oithona similis (Cyclopoida) in the Arctic Kongsfjorden (Svalbard)|journal=Marine Biology|volume=150|issue=3|year=2007|pages=443–454|issn=0025-3162|doi=10.1007/s00227-006-0359-4}} 2 : Calanoida|Crustaceans described in 1845 |
