Sentences with EUPHAUSIACEA (5)
Nearest to them come the Schizopoda, a primitive group from which two lines of descent can be traced, the one leading from the Mysidacea (_Mysidae_ + _Lophogastridae_) to the Cumacea and the sessile-eyed groups Isopoda and Amphipoda, the other from the Euphausiacea (_Euphausiidae_) to the Decapoda.
Nearly all the Euphausiacea possess the power of emitting light, and are furnished for the purpose with a number of organs which were formerly supposed to be "accessory eyes." The second order of the Eucarida, the DECAPODA, is by far the largest of the orders of Crustacea, and it includes all the larger and more familiar members of the class.
From the Euphausiacea the Decapoda differ in the fact that three pairs of the thoracic limbs are modified as maxillipeds, the remaining five pairs forming the "ten legs" to which the name of the order alludes.
Further, the gills are arranged in more than one series, not all attached to the bases of the legs, as in the Euphausiacea, and covered over by the side-flaps of the carapace instead of being freely exposed.
These are characteristically powerful swimmers, with lightly armoured bodies, more or less flattened from side to side, with a thin, saw-edged rostrum, and with large swimmerets which are the chief organs of swimming; in addition, some of the more primitive Natantia have swimming branches, or exopodites, like those of the Euphausiacea, on the thoracic legs.
