Thysanoessa raschii, sometimes known as Arctic krill, is one of the most common euphausiid species of the subarctic and Arctic seas. They may reach 20–25 millimetres (0.8–1.0 in) long, and are sexually mature above 14 mm (0.6 in). [1] T. raschii is a major prey item of several taxa, planktivorous fishes and marine mammals.
Most krill are about 1–2 centimetres (0.4–0.8 in) long as adults. A few species grow to sizes on the order of 6–15 centimetres (2.4–5.9 in). The largest krill species, Thysanopoda cornuta, lives deep in the open ocean. [35] Krill can be easily distinguished from other crustaceans such as true shrimp by their externally visible gills. [36]

[13] [14] Krill have developed special rows of rake-like setae at the tips of their thoracopods, and graze the ice in a zig-zag fashion. One krill can clear an area of a square foot in about 10 minutes (1.5 cm 2 /s). Recent discoveries have found that the film of ice algae is well developed over vast areas, often containing much more carbon ...
