The authors describe the six naupliar and five copepodid stages of Pseudocyclops umbraticus raised in the laboratory. These are the first data on the ontogenetic stages of a species of the genus Pseudocyclops. On the basis of these results and the adult morphology (Giesbrecht, 1893), the authors place P. umbraticus in an intermediate position between the lepidotus-kulai and crassiremismagnus groups of Ohtsuka et al.

Abstract
The authors describe the six naupliar and five copepodid stages of Pseudocyclops umbraticus raised in the laboratory. These are the first data on the ontogenetic stages of a species of the genus Pseudocyclops. On the basis of these results and the adult morphology (Giesbrecht, 1893), the authors place P. umbraticus in an intermediate position between the lepidotus-kulai and crassiremismagnus groups of Ohtsuka et al. (1999).File in questo prodotto:
