- Mesopelagic oikopleura were described by [[R. Fenaux
(1993)|biblio/10.1017_S0025315400033178]] in Bahamian and Bermudian

+ - Oikopleuridae can be found in polar waters. [[Capitanio, Daponte and Esnal
+ (2003)|biblio/10.1017_S0954102003001585]] proposed that _O. gaussica_, _O.
+ valdiviae_, _O. drygalskii_, and _O. weddelli_ are actually a single species
+ (with oral gland cells and ~8 to 14 subchordal cells).
