A new species of Pseudodiaptomus (Copepoda, Calanoida, Pseudodiaptomidae) from the coastal waters of northern Taiwan with notes on co-occurring and previously recorded species

What is it about?

This study has recorded four species of Pseudodiaptomus new to Taiwanese waters, including a new species. In addition, out of the 11 species recorded previously, true occurrence of three species have been confirmed, but the occurrence of the other eight species have not been confirmed by a critical review of available literature information, necessitating future verification based on accurate examination/description of the specimens.
