Abstract

A new species, Pseudodiaptomus koreanus sp. nov. (Calanoida, Pseudodiaptomidae), which has so far been identified as P. inopinus Burckhardt, 1913, is described from Korean estuaries. This new species differs from P. inopinus in the broad and short posterior process of the female genital flap, rounded posteriocentral projection between the gonopores, presence of a posterodorsal spinule on the fifth pediger of the male, and a row of fine ventral spinules on the male second urosomite. The new species is also distinguishable from P. nansei Sakaguchi and Ueda, 2010 by the presence of a row of fine spinules along posterior margins of the second and third pedigers in both sexes, rounded posteromedial projectionbetween the gonopores, separation of ancestral segment XXI and compound segments XXII–XXIII of the male right antennules, and a row of fine ventral spinules on the male second urosomite.
