Janssen, 2004).[1] The French occurrence was dated as Zanclean and thus it may be assumed that Oxygyrus occurred approximately since the Miocene-Pliocene transition.[1] Miocene representatives or related forms are unknown.[1] HabitatOxygyrus keraudreni is a shallow-dwelling species that normally occurs in low abundances.[5] In the Indian Ocean was Oxygyrus keraudreni found essentially limited to the upper 100 m of the water column, with 90% between 50 m and the surface.[5] Similarly, off Hawaii was it recorded low in numbers of individuals whose vertical range was limited to the upper 90 m of the water column, with most individuals occurring at night in the upper 45 m.[5] In another study from the same area off Hawaii it was found that Oxygyrus keraudreni was captured in nighttime tows but was either absent or nearly so from comparable daytime ones.[5] The results from the latter two studies suggest the possibility of daytime net avoidance.[5]ReferencesThis article incorporates CC-BY-3.0 text from references.[5][6] 1. ^Benson W.
