Abstract: We define and parametrise so-called $mathfraksl(2)$-type fibres of the $mathsfSp(2n,mathbbC)$- and $mathsfSO(2n+1,mathbbC)$-Hitchin system. These are (singular) Hitchin fibres, where the spectral curve induces a two-sheeted covering of a second Riemann surface $Y$. This identifies the $mathfraksl(2)$-type Hitchin fibres with fibres of an $mathsfSL(2,mathbbC)$- respectively $mathsfPSL(2,mathbbC)$-Hitchin map on $Y$. We give a stratification of these singular spaces by semi-abelian spectral data, study their irreducible components and obtain a global description of the first degenerations. Comparing the semi-abelian spectral data of $mathfraksl(2)$-type Hitchin fibres for the two Langlands dual groups, we extend the well-known Langlands duality of regular Hitchin fibres to $mathfraksl(2)$-type Hitchin fibres. Finally, we construct solutions to the decoupled Hitchin equation for Higgs bundles of $mathfraksl(2)$-type. We conjecture these to be limiting metrics along rays to the ends of the moduli space.
