Resumo: | The Antarctic copepod &lt;i&gt;Drescheriella glacialis&lt;/i&gt;, an inhabitant of sea ice, is the first polar invertebrate metazoan to have been cultured throughout its life cycle. We describe its demographic characteristics on the basis of a laboratory cohort study and correlative field data. When compared to its closest temperate zone relatives, &lt;i&gt;D. glacialis&lt;/i&gt; shows temperate compensation of developmental and reproductive rates. A genuine &lt;i&gt;r&lt;/i&gt;-strategist in every respect, it does not fit established trends for Antarctic invertebrates but appears well adapted to the peculiar spatio-temporal variability.
