A new species of Eupelte (Copepoda: Harpacticoida: Peltidiidae) from Anchialine caves in Bermuda
A new anchialine species of Eupelte (Copepoda: Harpacticoida: Peltidiidae) is described from tidal pools and submerged passages in Bermuda caves. It is the sixth anchialine harpacticoid species known from Bermuda and the first anchialine member worldwide

Restructuring the Ancorabolidae Sars (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) and Cletodidae T. Scott, with a new phylogenetic hypothesis regarding the relationships of the Laophontoidea T. Scott, Ancorabolidae and Cletodidae [PDF]
Uncovering the systematics of Copepoda Harpacticoida, the second-most abundant component of the meiobenthos after Nematoda, is of major importance for any further research dedicated especially to ecological and biogeographical approaches.

Members of subclass Copepoda are abundant, diverse, and-as a result of their variety of ecological roles in marine and freshwater environments-important, but their phylogenetic interrelationships are unclear. Recent studies of arthropods have used gene arrangements in the mitochondrial (mt) genome to infer phylogenies, but for copepods, only seven ...

The naupliar development of Bryocamptus zschokkei [Copepoda, Harpacticoida] [PDF]
The naupliar development of Bryocamptus (B.) zschokkei (Schmeil, 1893) (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) is described in detail from larvae reared from the eggs of females from the High Pyrenees. Six naupliar stages could be separated on the basis of both morphological and biometrical criteria.

Validating COI eDNA Metabarcoding Primers for Detection of Subterranean Fauna. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Subterranean ecosystems host a diverse range of ancient fauna, but studying these ecosystems is challenging due to significant sampling difficulties. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding offers a promising approach for monitoring subterranean biodiversity, yet issues such as primer bias and non‐target amplification can complicate its ...
