    The name, Nyctiphanes australis, means southern winking light and refers to the bioluminescence produced by a series of photophore organs along the length of the body. These organs are typical of euphausiids. South-eastern Australian waters (Dakin and Colefax 1940, Sheard 1953, Blackburn 1980). Southern New Zealand (Mauchline 1969, 1980,).
    Nyctiphanes australis range extends from approximately Sydney round the southern coast through Bass Strait to central South Australia, and throughout all Tasmanian coastal waters (Nyan Taw 1978, Ritz and Hosie 1982): approximately 31 to 44º S and between 132 and 156ºE.
    The larvae continue their development through 3 calyptopis stages, which bear some resemblance to copepods, and 3 furcilia stages, in which there is an increased development of thoracic and abdominal legs, and which begin to resemble the adult stage. Nyctiphanes australis reaches maturity approximately four months from egg release.
    Nyctiphanes australis feeds primarily on phytoplankton but it will also feed on zooplankton, detritus, flocculent organic matter and faeces. In doing so, it plays a key role in recycling organic matter, which would otherwise sink to the bottom, back into flesh available for higher order predators.
