Caribbean OBIS MeasurementOrFact Open in mapper Explore occurrences

Counts of copepods from the Cariaco Basin and adjacent Venezuelan waters (Southern Caribbean) collected on five oceanographic cruises made by the Motor Ship (M/S) La Salles between 1967 and 1968. Collections were made at different depths using a large Clarke-Bumpus sampler and plankton nets. The data represent the number of females and males (per specie), copepodites and nauplii.
