Corycaeus from the other side of the world

[Wim van Egmond]

Perhaps a bit strange to post the same organism but it could be interesting to see if it is the same species as Charlie's images. I thought I'd post them just to see if there are perhaps slight differences. Charlie, did your specimen come from the pacific? These were collected in the atlantic ocean. I could not make DIC images because I only had my Zeiss standard with me.

Great to see you back at this forum Wim.
Sorry to miss the 3D insects in Zoetermeer at the Mikros gathering.
Hope to soon see more of you and your marvellous work.

Wim,

These sure do look close! Yes mine came from Puget Sound, I drag a small plankton net along a fishing pier in Seattle.
