ii. Family Temoridae. 



Genus Temora W. Baird, 1850. 



The species belonging to this genus are easily distinguished from the other members of 

 the family by their compact body, cylindrical abdomen and long slender furcal joints, and by 

 the structure of the fifth pair of feet of both sexes. 



Two species were represented in the plankton collected by the 'Siboga'.

This species was moderately common and proved to be widely distributed in the Malay 

 Archipelago as shewn by the following records.

The females are easily identified by the spiniform projections of the last thoracic segment, 

 and by the very asymmetrical furcal joints. 



Temora discaudata appears to be widely distributed in tropical seas.
