Enhydrosoma propinquum [Enhydrosoma propinquum]
Description
Enhydrosoma propinquum is a marine copepod species that was first described in 1987. It is found in the Pacific Ocean, specifically in the Sea of Japan. This species exhibits the same benthic behavior as the other species in its genus, living close to the seabed. The presence of a rostrum that is not bifid distinguishes E. propinquum from other Enhydrosoma species.
