crustaceans in general requires study. Fisher (1960) reviews the
contradictory information available on the occurrence of vitamin D in
zooplankton and notes that very small quantities of it were detected in
Meganyctiphunes noruegica by Drummond and Hilditch (1930). Nothing
is known about the occurrence of, and requirement for, vitamins E and
K and essential fatty acids in euphausiids. Likewise, there is no
information for euphausiids on thiamine, riboflavin, nicotinamide,
pyridoxine, pantothenic acid, choline, inositol, biotin, p-aminobenzoic
acid, vitamin BT and vitamin C.
