Alicella gigantea is the largest species of amphipod ever observed, with some individuals reaching up to 34 centimetres (13 in) long. The average length of A. gigantea ranges from 72.5 to 141.0 millimeters, and its weight ranges from 4.2 to 45 grams[4]. Comparatively to other amphipods, the A. gigantea grows at a much faster rate. Formerly included in the family Lysianassidae, a new family, Alicellidae, was erected in 2008 for Alicella and five related genera. The species lives only at great depths; the first specimens were collected at the end of the 19th century from the Madeira Abyssal Plain, and subsequent specimens have been found in other abyssal plains of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, as well as from the Kermadec Trench in the southwest Pacific. One specimen was found in the

  • Alicella gigantea (Chevreux, 1899) è una crostaceo appartenente all'ordine degli anfipodi (sottordine Gammaridea). Gli appartenenti a questa specie costituiscono i più grandi anfipodi mai osservati, alcuni individui arrivano infatti a misurare fino a 34 cm di lunghezza. Precedentemente inclusa nella famiglia dei Lysianassidae, questa specie è stata poi spostata all'interno della famiglia degli Alicellidae, creata nel 2008, ed in particolare all'interno del genere Alicella di cui costituisce, ad oggi, l'unica specie.

  • Alicella gigantea is the largest species of amphipod ever observed, with some individuals reaching up to 34 centimetres (13 in) long. The average length of A. gigantea ranges from 72.5 to 141.0 millimeters, and its weight ranges from 4.2 to 45 grams[4]. Comparatively to other amphipods, the A. gigantea grows at a much faster rate. Formerly included in the family Lysianassidae, a new family, Alicellidae, was erected in 2008 for Alicella and five related genera. The species lives only at great depths; the first specimens were collected at the end of the 19th century from the Madeira Abyssal Plain, and subsequent specimens have been found in other abyssal plains of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, as well as from the Kermadec Trench in the southwest Pacific. One specimen was found in the stomach of a black-footed albatross, but is thought to have been dead before it was eaten. The size of this species of amphipod is hypothesized to be connected to oxygen availability. A. gigantea have gills on coxa 7 and tubiliform accessory lobes. These additional structures allow for A. gigantea to absorb more oxygen, which is a known contributor to gigantism. The size of A. gigantea also allows them to avoid being preyed on by potential predators such as Notoliparis kermadecensis, a liparid that preys on smaller amphipods. (en)
  • Alicella gigantea est une espèce de crustacés amphipodes, de la famille des , seul représentant du genre monotypique Alicella. C'est le plus grand amphipode vivant connu, avec une longueur maximale de 340 millimètres — alors que la majorité de ces minuscules crustacés ne dépasse pas 3 cm de long. Alicella gigantea vivant dans les abysses, il semble être un cas de gigantisme abyssal. Précédemment inclus dans la famille Lysianassidae, une nouvelle famille, Alicellidae, a été créée en 2008 pour Alicella et cinq genres apparentés. L'espèce ne vit que dans les grandes profondeurs. Les premiers spécimens ont été recueillis à la fin du XIXe siècle dans la plaine abyssale de Madère, les captures qui ont suivi ont été effectuées dans d'autres plaines abyssales de l'Atlantique et le Pacifique, ainsi que de la fosse des Kermadec, dans le Pacifique sud-ouest. Un spécimen a été trouvé dans l'estomac d'un albatros à pieds noirs, mais les scientifiques pensent qu'il était déjà mort avant sa capture. (fr)
