          Abstract

          Se describe la composición, distribución y abundancia de los eufáusidos capturados entre Valparaíso (33°0'S, 71°40'W), el archipiélago de Juan Fernández (33°37'S, 68°49'W) y las islas Desventuradas (26°20'S, 80°00'W), entre septiembre y octubre de 2000. Se identificaron 22 especies pertenecientes a seis géneros {Euphausia, Nematobrachion, Nematoscelis, Stylocheiron, Thysanoessa y Thysanopoda). La mayor abundancia se encontró próxima a la costa de Valparaíso (6.238 ind 1000 m-3 ), sólo constituida por Euphausia mucronata (62,3%). Las capturas estuvieron influenciadas por la migración vertical diaria, lo que generó una discontinuidad en la distribución horizontal de la mayoría de los eufáusidos, dada la profundidad del muestreo (0-200 m). Se estableció una relación inversa entre la abundancia de E. mucronata y Nematoscelis megalops y la concentración de oxígeno disuelto.

          Translated abstract

          The species composition, geographical distribution and abundance of the euphausiids, captured in 64 sampling stations between Valparaíso (33°0'S, 71°40'W), Juan Fernández Archipelago (33°37'S, 68°49'W) and Desventuradas Islands (26°20'S, 80°00W) between September and October 2000, were de-scribed. Between euphausiids adults, a total of 22 species belonging to six genera were identified {Euphausia, Nematobrachion, Nematoscelis, Stylocheiron, Thysanoessa and Thysanopoda). The higher abundance was found near Valparaíso (6,238 ind 1000 m-3), only integrated by Euphausia mucronata (62,3%). The captures were influenced by the diel vertical migration, which generated a horizontal discontinuity in the distribution of most of the euphausiids, due to the sampling depth (0-200 m). An inverse correlation was estabhshed between the abundance of E. mucronata and Nematoscelis megalops and the dissolved oxygen concentration.

            VERTICAL MIGRATION AND AVOIDANCE CAPABILITY OF EUPHAUSIIDS IN THE CALIFORNIA CURRENT

            Comparisons of day and night vertical distributions of euphausiids at the same stations make it possible to estimate 1) the extent of vertical migration of the furcilia, juveniles, and adults of the Euphausiacea (Crustacea) species, or 2) their ability to avoid the net in the daytime, or both. Seven species of Euphausia and one of Thysanopoda migrated more than 300 m, rising to near the surface at night. Adults of Nematoscelis (three species) migrated vertically but were bounded at upper limits by the thermocline at all but the most inshore stations. Nyctiphanes simplex and Stylocheiron carinatum were short‐distance (ca. 150–0 m) migrants. The extent of vertical migration was greatest in the most offshore central water, intermediate for midcurrent species, and least for coastal. Nonmigrants included all Stylocheiron species (except S. carinatum), Thysanoessa gregaria, and two Nematobrachion species. S. affine, S. suhmi, and T. gregaria inhabited the homogeneous layer. Apparent increases with depth in their daytime densities arise from avoidance of nets in the upper layers. This is minimal at ca. 100 m, where day and night densities are nearly equal.
