Abstract
Two closely related, difficult to diagnose calanoid copepod species, Eudiaptomus transylvanicus (Daday, 1891) and E. vulgaris (Schmeil, 1898), were studied based on the new material from the Sura River floodplain (the Middle Volga region, European Russia). The redescriptions and illustrations of two species are provided. The main diagnostic differences between these species are refined. New characters useful in the identification of E. transylvanicus are proposed. The data on distribution and habitats of the two species are reviewed and briefly analysed.
期刊介绍:
Zoosystematica Rossica is an international journal for publication of papers on any aspects of systematic zoology, in all groups of animals, both extant and fossil, from all over the World. The journal is published in English and focuses on the descriptions of new taxa, revisions and reviews, nomenclature, theories and methods of taxonomy and phylogeny, interesting new faunal records, catalogues and checklists, identification keys, phylogenetic relationships and zoogeography. Faunistic articles are published in a limited way and only if they contain new records for large geographical regions and are important for zoogeography or taxonomy.
